Tarsometatarsal fracture-dislocation.

G J van der Werf, A J Tonino

    Acta Orthopaedica Scandinavica

    Summary

    Open treatment for tarsometatarsal dislocation, particularly involving the lateral component, yielded better outcomes than closed treatment. Early clinical and radiographic analysis is crucial for accurate diagnosis and effective management of this often-missed injury.

    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic surgery
    • Traumatology
    • Foot and ankle surgery

    Background:

    • Tarsometatarsal dislocation is a complex foot injury.
    • Accurate diagnosis can be challenging due to subtle clinical and radiographic signs.
    • Treatment strategies vary, impacting patient outcomes.

    Purpose of the Study:

    • To compare the effectiveness of closed versus open treatment for tarsometatarsal dislocations.
    • To evaluate outcomes based on the specific components of the dislocation involved.

    Main Methods:

    • A comparative study involving 12 cases of tarsometatarsal dislocation.
    • Treatment was categorized as either closed reduction or open surgical intervention.
    • Outcomes were assessed based on treatment type and dislocation characteristics.

    Main Results:

    • Open treatment demonstrated superior results compared to closed treatment for lateral tarsometatarsal component dislocations.
    • Specifically, 6 out of 7 cases treated with open surgery had good outcomes, versus 1 out of 3 cases treated closed.
    • The study highlights the importance of careful clinical and radiographic evaluation.

    Conclusions:

    • Open surgical treatment appears more effective for tarsometatarsal dislocations involving the lateral component.
    • Thorough clinical and radiographic assessment is essential for timely and accurate diagnosis.
    • Prompt reduction and stabilization are critical for successful management of these injuries.
