Foot and Ankle OTIF: A Biomechanical Look Into Lisfranc Stabilization

Michael C. Aynardi, MD (Hershey, PA), discusses his findings in biomechanical analysis of the Lisfranc complex and the role of acute repair of low-energy Lisfranc injuries with the InternalBrace™ ligament augmentation procedure.

The InternalBrace surgical technique is intended only to augment the primary repair/reconstruction by expanding the area of tissue approximation during the healing period and is not intended as a replacement for the native ligament. The InternalBrace technique is for use during soft tissue-to-bone fixation procedures and is not cleared for bone-to-bone fixation.
