  • Title: Management of compound injuries of the lower extremity.
    Author: Maxwell GP, Hoopes JE.
    Journal: Plast Reconstr Surg; 1979 Feb; 63(2):176-85. PubMed ID: 33402.
    Abstract:
    The reconstructive surgeon experienced in the use of rotated or free muscle and myocutaneous flaps, skilled in microvascular surgery, and interested in lower extremity trauma, may favorably alter the course of management of these historically difficult problems. It can be of great advantage to the patient if this surgeon is involved in the primary evaluation, so that all initial therapy can be performed with the future reconstructive goals in mind.
