Abstract
1. Twenty-two feet injured at the tarso-metatarsal level are reviewed. 2. Experiments with eleven cadaveric feet are reported. 3. The injuries are caused by forced plantar-flexion combined with rotation in most cases. Crushing of the foot alone often does not produce dislocation. 4. A classification is suggested. 5. The results of various treatments in this small series are presented. It is concluded that anatomical reduction is important, achieved if necessary by operation and internal fixation.
