Soft-Tissue Coverage for Elbow Trauma - 21/10/15
Résumé |
The elbow is particularly prone to trauma, and soft-tissue reconstruction can be challenging given the inherent motion, pressure, and lack of local tissue laxity. Small wounds and those without exposure of vital structures may be amenable to primary repair. Large wounds and those requiring more substantial structural or anatomic repair may require local, regional or free flap-based reconstruction. A comprehensive review of soft-tissue reconstruction of the elbow is provided to offer surgeons alternative options in complicated upper extremity wounds.
