Lisfranc Repair With the InternalBrace™ Technique: Indications, Rationale, and Outcomes
Michael C. Aynardi, MD (Hershey, PA), presents the biomechanical advantages of flexible fixation over screws and their safe and effective use in a clinical case series for Lisfranc injuries.
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.
