Inconsistent radiographic diagnostic criteria for lisfranc injuries: a systematic review.
BMC Musculoskelet Disord

Article Synopsis
- The purpose of the study was to evaluate and standardize radiographic diagnostic criteria for Lisfranc injuries based on a systematic review of existing literature.
- The review analyzed 29 studies involving 1115 Lisfranc injuries, revealing a range of bias risks and varying overall recommendations for diagnostic criteria.
- The proposed standardized criteria identify 1 metatarsal to 2 metatarsal diastasis of ≥2 mm and 2 cuneiform to 2 metatarsal subluxation as key indicators for diagnosing Lisfranc injuries, potentially requiring further imaging if initial radiographs appear normal.
