title: Open reduction of Lisfranc's dislocation.
abstract: Cases that are seen early often can be treated by closed reduction. It is believed that the injury in the case presented could have been treated by closed reduction if it had been recognized at the time of occurrence. This would have decreased the patient's long postoperative course. Hardcastle et al found that the postoperative results with the partial incongruity type Lisfranc dislocation were fair. Post-traumatic degenerative joint changes in the midfoot may occur and the patient should receive orthotic therapy.
