The authors describe a rare case of Lisfranc's dislocation that occurred after a 13-year-old boy kicked the ground while playing soccer. He presented with complete pure dorsal tarsometatarsal dislocation of the first metatarsal. He was treated succesfully by closed reduction and percutaneous K-wire fixation. No complication was found and he returned to his preinjury lifestyle at 3 months. No sequelae are found 3.5 years later.
