Zusammenfassung:Category: Midfoot/Forefoot; Trauma Introduction/Purpose: Lisfranc injuries are thought to contribute to debilitating outcomes in polytrauma patients. Due to the relative rarity of Lisfranc injuries, consistent long-term follow-up is a challenge and clinical outcomes are difficult to assess in this patient population. As a result, there exists a need for further investigation into patient-related clinical outcomes after Lisfranc injury. The purpose of this study was to collect long-term clinical outcome data following Lisfranc injuries using PROMIS Physical Function (PROMIS-PF) and Visual Analogue Scale-Foot and Ankle (VAS-FA). Methods: A chart review was performed to identify all patients who had surgical treatment of an acute Lisfranc injury at our institution from 2005 to 2014. Of forty-five patients identified, we were able to recruit nineteen for a follow-up clinic visit consisting of a physical exam, administration of questionnaires addressing pain and medication usage, radiographs, and completion of outcome surveys including PROMIS-Physical Function and Visual Analogue Scale-Foot and Ankle. Results: There were 14 female and 5 male patients enrolled in the study with a mean time of 6.25 years from the time of injury. Within this cohort, the mean PROMIS-PF score was 52.4+-8.2 and the mean VAS-Foot and Ankle Score was 76.6+-22.3. The risk factors of age, gender, BMI, smoking status, depression, and time from injury showed no statistically significant association with PROMIS-PF or VAS-FA scores using p
