Representing only .2% of all fractures, Lisfranc injuries are rare and uncommon. High energy accidents as well as low energy accidents can cause them, and can go from a simple sprain to a full dislocated-fractured injury. Here we are reporting a case of a 17 years old male athlete who presented a medial columellar dislocation M1C1 following a soccer game incident. Management consisted in closed reduction and immobilization in a posterior splint for 6 weeks. Both clinical and radiological results were satisfying in short, medium and long term. Our patient went from passive rehabilitation after 6 weeks, to partial weight bearing after 9 weeks, and then a full weight bearing at 14 weeks gradually returning to his soccer training, individually first and then collectively. At the last follow up, 2 years after the incident, our patient regained full and painless professional activity. This study purpose was to shed light on the potential good results of the non-operative treatment in Lisfranc injuries even in athletic/high performance patients.
