Arthrodesis Versus Extra-articular Plate Fixation in Lisfranc Injury

March 5, 2021 updated by: Are Haukåen Stødle, Oslo University Hospital

Arthrodesis Versus Extra-articular Bridge Plating of the First Tarsometatarsal Joint After Acute Lisfranc Injury

The purpose of this study is to compare arthrodesis of the first TMT-joint to extraarticular bridge plate fixation of the same joint in acute Lisfranc injuries.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

We want to compare arthrodesis of TMT 1 to temporary bridge plating of TMT 1 in acute Lisfranc injuries where at least tarsometatarsal joints 1-3 are involved.

We preform arthrodesis of TMT 2 and 3 in both groups.
