This study was conducted to review the surgical repair of lisfranc injuries with interosseous suture button.
A study depicted that Interosseous Suture Button can be used to treat the lisfranc injuries. It was found that the ORIF (open reduction internal fixation) done by using an interosseous suture button have a sufficient medium-term satisfaction by the patient.
This study was conducted to review the surgical repair of lisfranc injuries with interosseous suture button.
In this study, 104 patients were involved who had gone through the open reduction internal fixation of the Lisfranc joint by a suture button. Only eighty-four patients were accessible for minimum 3-year follow-up.
It was observed that the visual analog scale (VAS) scores and American Orthopedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) improved after surgery. At the final follow-up assessment, the instant postreduction weight-bearing radiograph was 0.25 mm and 0.43 mm, which was considerable. No arthrodeses modification and no elimination of the suture button were done during this period. Open reduction internal fixation done by using an interosseous suture button found to have a sufficient medium-term satisfaction by the patient.
It was concluded that lisfranc injury, which can lead to chronic pain and posttraumatic osteoarthritis, can be treated using an Interosseous Suture Button.
