Arthrodesis Versus Extra-articular Plate Fixation in Lisfranc Injury

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Lisfranc Injuries
Interventions
Procedure: Primary arthrodesis
Procedure: Temporary extraarticular plate fixation
Procedure: Primary arthrodesis TMT 2 and 3
Registration Number
NCT01448941
Lead Sponsor
Oslo University Hospital
Brief Summary

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.

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.
