    AbstractMidfoot injuries of children are rare entities and often caused by high energy trauma mechanisms. Foot fractures in children may pose a diagnostic challenge but they usually have a good prognosis. In special cases computed tomography is necessary to find the right diagnosis in addition to plain X-rays. Based on two cases of midfoot injuries, a type II open Lisfranc fracture dislocation and a dislocation of a Chopart's joint, we describe the causes, diagnosis, and possibilities for treatment of juvenile midfoot injuries.
