Midfoot arthritis and Lisfranc injuries are often treated by fusing the tarsometatarsal (TMT) joints. Lisfranc injuries are treated by open reduction and internal fixation or by primary fusion; ligament repair with suture anchors is an option in selected cases.
- Fusion: Omni plates for Lisfranc and TMT arthrodesis, CoLink XP Y and H plates, the IO FiX 2.0 device for the metatarso-cuneiform and 2nd to 4th TMT joints, NeoSpan SE compression staples and I.B.S. cannulated compression screws.
- Zero-profile and bevelled screws: IO Freedom (lag screw with an X-Post within the bone) and IBS-B MIS bevelled screws.
- Joint preparation: The Cartilaginator.
- CoLink Bone Graft Harvester: a sterile single-use harvester for cancellous autograft from the calcaneus, tibia and other sites, morselised for use in the fusion.
- Ligament repair: FIBERKNOT all-suture anchors and MICRO-VIM anchors for Lisfranc and tarsometatarsal ligament repair.
Also known as: Lisfranc fusion, Tarsometatarsal (TMT) fusion, Midfoot arthrodesis
