ABSTRACT
CASE This is a case of a 7-year-old boy with a Lisfranc injury identified on weight-bearing films who was treated successfully with closed reduction with a clamp and smooth pin fixation. This patient returned to sports without pain or radiographic signs of arthritis at 1 year. CONCLUSION:
Lisfranc fractures and ligamentous injuries are rare and can occur in skeletally immature children. They have high potential for long-term disability if not properly diagnosed and treated. Although there is no consensus on optimal management of pediatric Lisfranc injuries, restoration of an anatomic Lisfranc joint with smooth pins and immobilization for 6 weeks is a viable treatment option.
