Area of Science:

  • Orthopedic Surgery
  • Trauma Surgery
  • Reconstructive Surgery

Background:

  • Emergency soft tissue closure improves outcomes for severe open fractures.
  • Challenges include patient instability, polytrauma, and lack of clear guidelines for reconstruction timing and methods.
  • Optimal management of soft tissue defects is crucial for limb salvage.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a practical algorithm for emergency soft tissue reconstruction in severe open tibia fractures.
  • The algorithm aims to simplify decision-making for timing and method selection.
  • Focus on reliable and straightforward reconstructive techniques.

Main Methods:

  • A study involving 85 patients with open tibia fractures and soft tissue defects.
  • Patients were divided into a control group (56) treated without a specific algorithm and a study group (29) using the developed algorithm.
  • The algorithm guides reconstruction based on patient condition, defect characteristics, and mechanism of injury.

Main Results:

  • The algorithm led to a statistically significant decrease in deep wound infection.
  • Reduced frequency of partial tibia necrosis and chronic osteomyelitis was observed.
  • Shorter hospitalization duration was noted in the study group.

Conclusions:

  • The developed algorithm provides a structured approach to emergency soft tissue reconstruction for open tibia fractures.
  • Implementation of the algorithm improves patient outcomes by minimizing complications.
  • This systematic method enhances the management of complex lower extremity trauma.
