Really??

Lis franc is a viral infection affecting the foot. Carter picked it up when he was serving in the Paris Franc mission...

better than "Ute Toe".



I hear that's incurable.

Darn French screwing things up again ;)

I dated a "Lis Franc" once, Lizzie was nice, but we didn't get along too well.... ultimately I had to give her the boot....

Have you ever dropped a heavy box on the top of your foot? Or accidentally stepped in a small hole and fallen, twisting your foot? These two common accidents can result in a Lisfranc fracture-dislocation of the midfoot. This fracture gets its name from the French doctor who first described the injury.
