Aggressive management of complex pelviperineal injuries, including wound care and fecal diversion, significantly reduces patient mortality. This protocol improved survival rates in trauma patients.

Area of Science:

  • Trauma Surgery
  • Surgical Critical Care

Background:

  • Complex pelviperineal injuries present significant management challenges.
  • High morbidity and mortality rates are associated with these severe injuries.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present results from a protocol for managing complex pelviperineal injuries.
  • To discuss factors influencing outcomes and the importance of aggressive initial treatment.

Main Methods:

  • Management of 48 patients with complex pelviperineal injuries.
  • Protocol included wound irrigation, debridement, open wound management, colostomy, regular revisions, antibiotics, nutritional support, and bone/skin graft management.

Main Results:

  • The implemented protocol led to a significant decrease in mortality rate.
