Outcomes from open lower limb fractures in elderly patients undergoing orthoplastic surgery - an observational cohort study from the South Wales Orthoplastic Service.
[BACKGROUND] Patient-reported outcomes following treatment of open lower limb fractures in the elderly are poorly reported. This study aimed to report clinical outcomes from the South Wales orthoplastic service using the Lower Extremity Fun…

Enhanced recovery for acute open lower limb fracture 'fix and flap'.
[INTRODUCTION] Enhanced recovery (ER) aims to achieve earlier recovery, reduced hospital length of stay (LoS) whilst improving outcomes. Our ER protocol for acute lower-limb open fracture (ALLOFs) includes dangling at day 3 and mobilising f…

End to end versus end to side microvascular anastomosis for traumatic lower limb free flap reconstructions: A systematic review and meta-analysis.
[BACKGROUND] Free flap reconstruction of the lower extremity is technically challenging and may suffer from higher complication rates than other anatomical sites. One important vascular consideration in the reconstructive process is the mic…

Free flaps for lower limb soft tissue reconstruction - A systematic review of complications in 'Silver Trauma' patients.
[BACKGROUND] There are 12.5 million people aged 65 years and older living in the UK. The annual incidence of open fracture is 30.7 per 10,000 person-years. In females, 42.9% of all open fractures occur in patients ≥ 65 years. [METHODS AND …

Soft tissue coverage of the ankle: An algorithm for appropriate flap selection and the experiences of a newly established Major Trauma Network.
[INTRODUCTION] Replication of the thin and pliable native skin around the ankle remains a challenge for plastic surgeons treating soft tissue defects in this region. Flap reconstruction constitutes the mainstay of management of such injurie…
