Abstract

Surgical treatment was applied in 46 patients with simultaneous injury of great vessels of the lower extremities and fractures of the long bones or dislocations of the knee joint. The authors have determined the best in their opinion sequence of surgical procedure. They think that external fixation gives better bone stabilization and is more favorable than internal stabilization. They also recommend lavage of the peripheral vascular bed of the ischemic lower extremity, which prevents post-traumatic insufficiency of the kidneys. They think that early fasciotomy of the crus or fibulectomy is important for the good result of the operation.
