Clinical aspects of treatment of patients with open leg bone fractures

The paper analyzes the results of surgical treatment of patients with open injuries of the lower leg. It is shown that active surgical tactics for open injuries of the musculoskeletal system can significantly reduce the percentage of complications. When the severity of open damage to the lower leg of type I is optimal, the use of blocking intramedullary osteosynthesis should be considered, and for open injuries of types II and III, a two-stage tactic of fixing bone fragments should be used with the initial stabilization of the fracture by an external rod device and its subsequent replacement with an internal implant.
