[Bore wire osteosynthesis in injuries of the foot]

Severe foot lesions with fractures and/or dislocations require the best reconstruction of form and function. The essential prerequisite for an undisturbed healing consists of an exact reduction with reconstruction of skeletal foot structure by osteosynthesis according to the lesions of the soft tissue. In case of extended lesions of the soft tissue, the closed reduction with reconstruction of the vault of the foot and the retention with Kirschner-wires, if necessary combined with a fixateur externe, has proven to be successful for stabilization.
