Clinical Orthopaedics and Related Research, 1981
The authors call attention to the work of Trueta on open fractures and to the fact that, even today, his principles are followed all over the world. Today, such fractures are immobilized with external skeletal fixation instead of plaster casts. The results are presented of 71 patients with severe open fractures of the tibia who were treated by external

Injury, 1990
We reviewed 32 patients with open pelvic fractures treated over a 5-year period. Eleven patients had isolated fractures of the ilium and in 21 patients pelvic ring disruption was associated with a perineal laceration. Three patients died from massive haemorrhage soon after admission and one patient from severe sepsis.

The Journal of Trauma: Injury, Infection, and Critical Care, 1982
Open pelvic fracture is a devastating injury with a reported 50% mortality rate from massive bleeding and pelvic sepsis. Utilizing a graded approach to management of hemorrhage that included wound packing, anti-shock trousers, angiographic embolization, and hemipelvectomy, we controlled bleeding in all but one of the 35 patients in this series ...

Open fractures still represent a major challenge for the treating surgeon and frequently demand a complex of soft tissue and bone procedures to achieve an undisturbed healing with adequate limb function. However, despite improvement in operative techniques and antibiotic therapy septic complications still occur in severe open fracture forms up to 50 ...

Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma, 1996
We retrospectively reviewed 57 open patella fractures treated at our institution between 1976 and 1989. Forty-four patients with 47 fractures (cases) were available for follow-up a mean of 9.4 years after injury (range 2.2-15.7). High-energy vehicular trauma was the cause of injury in > 90% of cases.

Open fractures of the extremities
Postgraduate Medicine, 1985Meticulous care of open wounds in open fractures is essential to prevent development of infection. Wounds should be treated by early excision and early delayed or secondary closure. Primary closure is not necessarily beneficial and can actually increase the risk of infection.
