Midfoot crush injuries.

چکیده
Treatment of midfoot injuries is surgical or nonsurgical, depending on the injury, the location, and the extent of the injury. Minor injuries usually heal with casting or bracing, whereas more unstable injuries typically need surgery for stability. Whether the injury is in a weight-bearing portion of the foot is also a consideration for surgery. The importance of treating midfoot injuries adequately is shown in how the midfoot is needed for function with weight bearing and its relationship between the front and the back of the foot. It is also important to ensure that the patient is able to ambulate with a reasonably normal gait.
