Abstract
INTRODUCTION Midfoot fusion is a common fixation for treating acute trauma or degenerative arthritis of the midfoot as well as the Lisfranc injury, which consists of midfoot fracture and dislocation. Different types of fusion has been used and their biomechanical effects on the foot and possible post-operative complications arouse concerns among foot surgeons. In this study, the biomechanical effects of midfoot fusion were investigated using the finite element (FE) approach. Two different types of midfoot fusion were studied during the simulated stance phase of gait.
