Injury Oct 27, 2020
Chen P, Ng N, Snowden G, et al. - The present study was sought to correlate the clinical outcomes of percutaneous reduction and internal fixation (PRIF) of low energy Lisfranc injuries with a matched, control group of individuals treated with open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF). Researchers treated 16 consecutive patients with a low energy Lisfranc injury (Myerson B2-type) with PRIF over a seven-year period (2012-2019). This study’s findings demonstrate that PRIF of low energy Lisfranc injures is a safe, minimally invasive procedure and is correlated with better mid-term clinical outcomes compared to ORIF.
