BACKGROUND: Severe extremity trauma is one of the most challenging injuries to treat. Limb salvage after severe extremity trauma requires rapid revascularization, accurate and appropriate bone and soft tissue reconstruction, and appropriate management to address critical complications. The purpose of this study was to report the treatment outcomes for severe extremity trauma injuries at our independent orthopedic trauma center.
METHODS: This study included patients with severe extremity trauma who underwent major vascular repair or soft tissue reconstruction. Bone reconstruction method, presence or absence of revascularization, and flap type were investigated. Complications were investigated, including revascularization failure, flap failure, infection, and ultimately, whether amputation was required. Additionally, we investigated the number of surgeries performed on each patient at the time of initial hospitalization.
RESULTS: Thirty-five patients who underwent revascularization or soft tissue reconstruction were included in this study. Plate fixation was performed in 18 patients, intramedullary nail fixation in 8, screw fixation in 1, pinning in 4, and without implant fixation in 4. Revascularization was performed in six patients, and no vascular complications occurred. Pedicled and free flaps were used in 17 and 16 patients, respectively. Partial flap necrosis occurred in four patients, and arterial occlusion occurred in one. Infection occurred in 10 patients who were treated with frequent irrigation and high-concentration antibiotics local infusion therapy. None of the 35 patients required limb amputation. Mean number of surgeries was 12.5.
CONCLUSIONS: The limb of all the 35 patients with severe extremity trauma treated at our independent orthopedic trauma center were salvaged.
