title: [Therapy and results of a treatment for fresh injuries of the foot distal to the Chopart joint (author's transl)].
abstract: The traumatic lesion of the foot is very often a severe and not a negligible injury. The results of 100 patients, treated during 1973--77, with fresh injuries distal the Chopart Joint are pointed out. A high rate of infection and amputations has to be reported. Nearly 1/3 of all the patients are suffering from foot-deformities, loss of function, posttraumatic dystrophy and arthrosis. More than 1/2 of all the patients need orthopaedic aids. Therefore consistent therapy of these often neglected injuries seems to be very important and general directions are given.
