简要总结
In this multicenter cohort study, the stability of non-displaced Lisfranc injuries as well as their outcomes will be evaluated.
详细描述
Injuries to the tarsometatarsal joints ("Lisfranc injuries") that are non-displaced on non-weightbearing radiographs and CT are common injuries. To refer these injuries to the right treatment, evaluating their stability is essential. For this purpose, both weightbearing radiographs and stress fluoroscopy have been proposed. However, there is no consensus concerning both the use and interpretation of weightbearing radiographs and no standardized technique and interpretation of stress fluoroscopy in non-displaced Lisfranc injuries.
In the current study, participants will be assigned to non-operative or operative treatment based on Lisfranc joint stability evaluation by weightbearing radiographs.
All Patients with negative weightbearing radiographs will be treated conservatively. In addition, their injured feet will be evaluated by manual stress fluoroscopy. Depending on the result of the stress fluoroscopy (positive/negative), the conservatively treated patients will be assigned to 2 cohorts, whose outcomes will be compared.
Patients with positive weightbearing radiographs will be treated operatively by minimally invasive stabilization of the midfoot (eg. isolated "homerun screw"). The operatively treated patients will be followed up as an independent cohort.

研究组 & 干预措施
Negative WB radiographs and stress fluoroscopy
Cohort 1
Negative weight bearing radiographs:
Interval between medial cuneiform and base of the second metatarsal (C1-M2) are less than 2mm increased compared to the uninjured side.
Negative stress fluoroscopy: the midfoot is tested stable
干预措施: Conservative treatment (Procedure)
Negative WB radiographs / positive stress fluoroscopy
Cohort 2
Negative weight bearing radiographs:
Interval between medial cuneiform and base of the second metatarsal (C1-M2) are less than 2mm increased compared to the uninjured side.
Positive stress fluoroscopy: manual testing reveals midfoot instability
干预措施: Conservative treatment (Procedure)
Surgical cohort (Cohort 3)
Patients with positive weightbearing radiographs will be operated on with minimally invasive technique and followed up as an independent cohort.
干预措施: Minimally invasive stabilization of Lisfranc injuries (Procedure)
