Dislocation Of The First Metatarsophalangeal Joint Concomitant With Lisfranc Joint Dislocation In A 45-Year-Old Man

A 45-year-old man presented with severe pinch-point crush injury to his left foot. Plain radiographs revealed dislocation of the first metatarsophalangeal joint and dorsolateral dislocation of the basal phalanx and sesamoids. The first tarsometatarsal joint was subluxed in the plantar direction and the second to fourth tarsometatarsal joints were subluxed dorsally. The sesamoids were displaced dorsolateral to the metatarsal head. There was a longitudinal tear of the joint capsule at the medial margin of the medial sesamoid, which was sutured together with the abductor hallucis tendon and collateral ligament. The Lisfranc and dorsal ligaments in the tarsometatarsal joint were torn and repaired after reduction and fixed with a plate. One year after surgery, there was contracture of the first metatarsophalangeal joint, but the patient had no pain and was able to run.
