    Surgical strategies for severe frostbite have evolved over 35 years. Dermo-plastic surgery now improves outcomes, reducing complications and reamputations for hand and foot frostbite patients.

    Area of Science:

    • Trauma Surgery
    • Plastic Surgery
    • Wound Healing

    Context:

    • Analysis of 35 years of treatment for 621 patients with IV-degree frostbite of hands and feet.
    • Significant evolution in surgical strategies for frostbite management observed over the study period.

    Purpose:

    • To present the evolution of surgical treatment for severe frostbite.
    • To evaluate the impact of dermo-plastic surgery on frostbite treatment outcomes.

    Summary:

    • Classical surgical treatment for frostbite has been augmented by the widespread adoption of dermo-plastic surgery techniques.
    • Dermo-plastic surgery allows for the preservation of maximal extremity stump length.
    • This approach has led to a reduced incidence of purulent complications and reamputations.

    Impact:

    • Improved patient outcomes in frostbite treatment.
    • Reduced need for reamputations and decreased frequency of infections.
    • Shortened duration of hospital treatment for frostbite patients.
