title: Results of the surgical treatment of Lisfranc fracture-dislocations.
abstract: The authors present a series of 25 patients with Lisfranc fracture-dislocation who were treated by reduction (open or closed) and stabilization with Kirschner wiring. Minimum follow-up was two years. The dislocations were divided based on the Quenu and Kuss classification system. Nonsurgical reduction was possible in 17 patients. Neither the type of dislocation nor the type of reduction influenced the results in progression in our series. Nonetheless, long-term functional results were better when the quality of the reduction was excellent.
