Tibia ve Fibula Kırığı Olan Hastadaki Gizli Lisfranc Çıkığı

Year 2013, Volume: 4 Issue: 4, 133 - 135, 01.10.2013

Abstract

Lisfranc yaralanması nadir görülür, teşhisi zordur ve sıklıkla atlanan
bir yaralanmadır. Kalıcı sekele yol açan bu yaralanmada gecikmiş
sevk veya yetersiz tedavi nedeniyle artan bir şekilde acil hekimlerine malpraktis davaları açılmaktadır. Bu vaka sunumunda, buz
pateni yaparken düşmesine bağlı ayaktaki lisfranc ligament yaralanması ile ilişkili tibia ve fibula spiral kırığı olan bir erkek hakkında
bilgi sunmak istedik. Acil hekimleri ayak orta bölümünde şişme
ve/veya hassasiyeti olan hastada Lisfranc yaralanmasından yüksek oranda şüphelenmelidirler. Orta ayak bölümünde genellikle
lateral deviasyon veya belirgin çıkık görülmediği için bazı lisfranc
yaralanmaları ilk bakışta atlanabilir. Ayak ön bölümü normal olarak görülebilir veya lisfranc ekleminde tek başına akut hassasiyet
olması bizim vakamızda olduğu gibi eşlik eden kırıklara bağlı atlanabilir.

Missed Lisfranc Dislocation in a Patient with Tibia and Fibula Fracture

Year 2013, Volume: 4 Issue: 4, 133 - 135, 01.10.2013

Abstract

Lisfranc injury is a rarely seen, hardly diagnosed and frequently missed injury. Emergency physicians are increasingly exposed to malpractice lawsuits due to delayed referral or inadequate management of this injury that leads to permanent sequelae. We report here the case of a boy with spiral fractures of both the tibia and fibula due to an ice-skating injury, who additionally had Lisfranc ligament injury of the foot. Emergency physicians should maintain a high index of suspicion for a Lisfranc injury in a patient with midfoot swelling and/or tenderness. Many Lisfranc injuries are missed at first glance as gross luxation or lateral deviation of the midfoot is usually not present. The forefoot may appear normal; or acute tenderness along the Lisfranc joint may be mistakenly attributed to co-existing fractures as it was in our case
