dc.description.abstractThe middle cuneiform is the keystone of the transverse arch and is located between the medial cuneiform and lateral cuneiforms. Isolated middle cuneiform plantar dislocations are rare injuries due to their shape and ligamentous structural connections. A 20-year-old female patient was admitted to the emergency service of another clinic after a 70 kg iron tractor piece fell on her foot 20 days before she was referred to our clinic. Conservative treatment with a short leg circular cast was applied, considering that there was a fracture in the cuneiforms on X-ray imaging. The patient, who was re-evaluated at the second-week follow-up, was referred to our hospital considering the complex injury of the cuneiforms. There was tenderness over the cuneiform in the physical examination. X-ray and computed tomography images of the patient revealed plantar dislocation of the middle cuneiform bone. with subluxation of the medial cuneiform. Open reduction and internal fixation were performed for the middle cuneiform. During the six-month follow-up, the patient had no complaints and was able to do routine work. No lucency or arthritic changes were observed in the X-ray at the 22-month control. Plantar middle cuneiform dislocations are rare and late diagnosis can lead to poor results. This case is presented to emphasize the importance of considering this rare injury and using advanced imaging studies when necessary, considering the mechanism of injury.en_US
