25岁男性患者Lisfranc骨折的有效康复:病例报告

Abstract

A dislocation or break of the tarsometatarsal joint in the foot is referred to as a Lisfranc fracture, sometimes called a Lisfranc injury. It can be caused by less stressful mechanisms like a twisting fall as well as high-energy events like car crashes or falls from heights. Swelling, bruises, and midfoot pain that gets worse when standing or walking are some of the symptoms. The damage may only affect the ligaments or the foot's bony structures. Nonoperative or surgical treatment may be part of the management, depending on how severe the injury is. In order to realign and stabilize the bones, open reduction internal fixation with Kirschner wires (K-wires) is a common surgical procedure. In this case, a 25-year-old male patient complained of left foot pain and wound. He gave a history of a left leg stuck in the harvester. Immediately, he was taken to a local hospital, where a dressing of his left foot was done. He was referred to a super specialty hospital where an investigation, like an X-ray, was done, which revealed a Lisfranc fracture. K-wire was applied to fix the Lisfranc fracture. Further on, rehabilitation was started to restore mobility, regain full range of motion, and develop muscle strength. American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Score (AOFAS) and Lower Extremity Functional Scale (LEFS) were used as outcome measures.
