Fixation of isolated Lisfranc ligament injury with the TightRope™: A technical report - 06/10/21

Abstract |
Treatment of Lisfranc ligament injury is still debatable. For this reason, we applied a standard suture button (TightRope™, Arthrex, Naples, FL), a device originally designed for syndesmosis fixation, in treating isolated Lisfranc ligament (ILL) injuries. Twelve patients diagnosed as having an ILL injury were recruited. All patients regained their previous activity level within 3 months after the surgery without any complications. We propose that standard suture button device in an ILL injury is an easy technique to perform with short learning curve, accompanied with satisfactory outcomes.
