title: Developments and advances in the diagnosis and treatment of injuries to the tarsometatarsal joint.
abstract: Continued research and clinical advances have allowed clinicians to diagnose injuries of the tarsometatarsal joint earlier and with greater precision than in previous eras and have promoted refinements of the surgical procedures used in their treatment. For patients with such injuries, these advances should result in improved function and a substantial decrease in morbidity.
