Abstract

Management of high-energy, complex limb injuries is a difficult challenge for orthopedic surgeons. Fractures do not heal without adequate soft tissue coverage and vascular supply. In cases of complex limb injuries, acute shortening and angulation is a viable option for treating both bone and soft tissue defects, providing early coverage and preventing many serious complications. In this chapter, the authors introduce the shortening and angulation technique as a strategy for management of traumatic open limb fractures with soft tissue defects.
