Abstract

Lisfranc eklemi ilk üç metatarsın kuneiform kemiklerle ve son iki metatarsın kuboid kemikle yaptığı
eklemlerin tümüne verilen isimdir. Orta ayağın stabilitesinden sorumludur. Nadir görülen ve sık atlanılan
bu yaralanmayı vurgulamak amacıyla acil servisimize başvuran, erken tanı alarak sekelsiz iyileşen üç
Lisfranc yaralanması olgusu sunulmuştur.
Elli sekiz yaş kadın hasta 3 gün önce ayağı halıya takılıp düşme sonucunda ayakta morarma ağrı
şikayetiyle acil servise başvurdu. Yapılan fizik muayenesinde sol ayak plantar yüzeyde yaygın ekimozu
ve hassasiyeti mevcut olup, hastanın iki yönlü ayak-ayak bileği radyografilerinde sol 2.metatars
bazisinde ve medial kuneiformda kırık tespit edildi . Lisfranc yaralanması olarak değerlendirilip non
weight-bearing alçı uygulandı. Takiplerinde bir sekel veya komplikasyon görülmedi.
Yirmi iki yaş erkek hasta iki gün önce sol ayağına darbe alması sonucu devam eden ağrı şikâyeti ile
acile başvurdu. Hastanın iki yönlü ayak-ayak bileği grafilerinde 2, 3 ve 4. metatarsal eklem bölgesinde
fraktürler ve luksasyonlar saptandı. Hastaya kısa bacak atel uygulandı ve cerrahi gereksiniminden
dolayı servise interne edildi. Hastaya açık redüksiyon internal fiksasyon uygulandı. Takiplerinde cerrahi
sonrasında herhangi bir sekel gelişmedi.
Kırk üç yaş erkek hasta sağ ayağının üzerinden araba tekeri geçmesi nedeniyle acil servise başvurdu.
Yapılan fizik muayenesinde sağ ayak dorsalinde yaygın hassasiyet ve ödem mevcuttu. Hastanın iki
yönlü ayak-ayak bileği grafilerinde sağ ayak 2. 3. 4. metatars bazisi kırığı, medial kuneiform ve kuboid
kırıkları saptandı. Hastaya kısa bacak atel uygulandı ve cerrahi tedavi planlandı. Hasta dış merkezde
tedavi olmak istediğini belirtip hastanemizden ayrıldı.
Nadir görülen ancak radyografilerde sık atlanılması ve tanı alamaması hâlinde uzun süreli sakatlıklara
yol açması nedeniyle dikkat edilmesi gereken bir yaralanmadır

Frequently Missed Injury of Middle Foot: Lisfranc Injury

Year 2023, Volume: 7 Issue: 3, 372 - 375, 31.12.2023

Abstract

The Lisfranc joint is the name given to all the joints of the first three metatarsals with the cuneiform
bones and the last two metatarsals with the cuboid bone. It is responsible for the stability of the midfoot.
In order to emphasize this rare and frequently overlooked injury, three cases of Lisfranc injury who
presented to our emergency department and recovered without sequelae with early diagnosis are
presented.
A 58-year-old female patient applied to the emergency service with the complaint of bruising and pain in
the foot as a result of falling on the carpet 3 days ago. In the physical examination, there was widespread
ecchymosis and tenderness on the plantar surface of the left foot, and fractures were detected in the left
2nd metatarsal base and medial cuneiform in the bilateral foot-ankle radiographs of the patient. It was
evaluated as a Lisfranc injury and a non-weight-bearing cast was applied. No sequelae or complications
were observed in the follow-up.
A 22-year-old male patient applied to the emergency department with the complaint of ongoing pain
due to a blow to his left foot two days ago. Fractures and luxations were detected in the 2nd, 3rd and
4th metatarsal joints in the bilateral foot-ankle radiographs of the patient. A short leg splint was applied to the patient and he was admitted to the ward because of his surgical need. Open reduction internal fixation was applied to the patient. No
sequelae developed after surgery in the follow-ups.
A 43-year-old male patient applied to the emergency service because of a car wheel passing over his right foot. On physical examination,
there was widespread tenderness and edema in the dorsum of the right foot. Bilateral foot-ankle radiographs of the patient revealed fractures
of the 2nd, 3rd, 4th metatarsal base of the right foot, medial cuneiform and cuboid fractures. Short leg splint was applied to the patient and
surgical treatment was planned. The patient stated that he wanted to be treated in an external center and left our hospital.
It is a rare injury that needs attention because it is frequently missed on radiographs and causes long-term disability if not diagnosed.
