Midtarsal joint sprain: A case report

Abstract

Injuries involving the midtarsal joint complex are relatively rare and frequently missed or misdiagnosed, resulting in poor functional outcomes. They are hard to diagnose clinically and poor diagnostic recognition may lead to painful sequelae in the absence of appropriate treatment. This case report presents a patient with a history of ankle trauma where ultrasound recognition of midtarsal joint changes resulted in diagnostic recognition of a midtarsal joint sprain.
