    Efficacy of Ultrasound Imaging in the Evaluation of the Lisfranc Joint Complex

    Efficacy of Ultrasound Imaging in the Evaluation of the Lisfranc Joint Complex THESIS Presented in Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Master of Science in the Graduate School of The Ohio State University By Meridith Kay DeLuca, B.S. Graduate Program in Anatomy The Ohio State University 2018 Master's Examination Committee: Laura C. Boucher, PhD, ATC (Advisor) Christopher Pierson, MD, PhD Bryant Walrod, MD Copyright by Meridith Kay DeLuca 2018 Abstract Lisfranc injuries account for 1 in 55,000 injuries yearly and are associated with poor outcomes and high complication rates. Located between the medial cuneiform and second metatarsal, the dorsal Lisfranc ligament is easily visualized with ultrasonography. Ultrasound can provide quick, cost effective diagnosis of pathology, but is not standardized in practice. The purpose of this study was to compare measurement accuracy of the dorsal Lisfranc ligament between ultrasound and gross dissection with an additional anatomic study of the complex, including the dorsal, interosseous, and plantar Lisfranc ligaments. Ultrasound images of 22 embalmed cadaveric feet (11 male, 7 female, 80.3 years ± 14.03) were obtained using a Sonosite M-Turbo ultrasound machine. The dorsal Lisfranc ligament was imaged and measured using a 6-13MHz linear array. Images were measured a second time using ImageJ software. Specimens were then dissected to evaluate the dorsal, interosseous, and plantar Lisfranc ligaments. Dorsal ligament measurements were compared between methodologies, and morphology of the joint complex was also recorded. Differences in measurement of the dorsal Lisfranc ligament between ultrasound imaging (8.39 mm ± 1.26) and gross dissection (10.80 mm ± 1.85) were significant (p < 0.001).
