Significant risk of infection Bone loss Nonunion Limb-length discrepancy Deformity often require multiple additional surgical procedures ΣΤΟΧΟΙ ΘΕΡΑΠΕΙΑΣ Restoration of the lower extremities continuity, axis, original length and near – original function is the primary aim of salvage therapy. Because of the wide of the wide variety of gunshot injuries, treatment plans must be personalized; no single protocol can be established. E. Craintz J. Orthop. Science - 2002 The standard care in the management of acute gunshot fractures includes: Wound care Fracture stabilization Repair of neuro-vascular injury I.V. antibiotics Repeat surgical debridement Closure by secondary intention External circular fixation with the Ilizarov method allows simultaneous treatment of bone loss, infection, nonunion, and deformities. MATERIAL-METHOD 17 Patients – 17 Shotgun fractures 17 fractures were open high-energy type III C, and displaced severely comminuted - type C3 (Α.Ο.) 17 patients were male average age 42,6 y (range 18 – 52 y) MATERIAL-METHOD In 17 patients the monolateral external fixator were used for initial fracture stabilization. 2 of the fractures was aseptic and 15 of the fractures were infected. Time to index 3,6 m. (1-15) Average No of previous operations 2,4 Average size of bone defect 5,7 cm. (2- 15) The additional plastic surgery were applied in 9 cases for coverage of the skin and soft tissue defect.

The Ilizarov method is the treatment of choice for high – energy gunshot injuries of long bones. ΕΥΧΑΡΙΣΤΩ
