TY - JOUR PY - 2006// TI - Injuries of the midfoot in children JO - Unfallchirurg A1 - Strohm, P. C. A1 - Schwering, L. A1 - Mehlhorn, A. A1 - Stankovic, Z. A1 - Südkamp, N. P. SP - 1094 EP - 1098 VL - 109 IS - 12 N2 - Midfoot injuries of children are rare entities and often caused by high energy trauma mechanisms. Foot fractures in children may pose a diagnostic challenge but they usually have a good prognosis. In special cases computed tomography is necessary to find the right diagnosis in addition to plain X-rays. Based on two cases of midfoot injuries, a type II open Lisfranc fracture dislocation and a dislocation of a Chopart's joint, we describe the causes, diagnosis, and possibilities for treatment of juvenile midfoot injuries.
