Study Summary

I hypothesize that absorbable screw fixation of the foot's Lisfranc ligaments does not yield significant differences in postoperative foot stability, ligament function, and symptoms when compared to steel screw fixation. In addition, absorbable screw fixation of the Lisfranc ligaments offers the advantage that a second surgical procedure to remove the screw is not necessary.

Interventions

  • DEVICE Linvatec 4.5 mm Smart Screw
  • DEVICE Synthes 4.0 mm steel screw
