Abstract

Objective: Most of the time, amputation is unavoidable depending on the severity of the destruction in extremity injured by close range shotgun trauma. We hereby present our surgi— cal results regarding case series of patients in whom we performed limb salvage surgery for close— range, below—knee shotgun injuries. Material and Methods: This cross—sectional study was made between May 2012 and October 2013. Data regarding the patient demographics, operative param— eters, and the post—operative course were prospectively collected by recording on printed chart (9 patients). Results: All patients had fragmented tibial fractures, and patients had also fibula frac— tures. The posterior tibial artery was the most commonly injured artery (8 patients). Five patients had double arterial and patients had triple arterial damage. Four patients received primary revas— cularization to the extremity, received autologous graft interposition with great saphenous vein, and received distal bypasses with the popliteal artery being used as the inflow source. The nonviable soft tissue was removed. External fixation Was performed for bone fractures. Injured nerves were primarily repaired. The median hospital stay was 11 days (8-15 days). Four patients achieved improvement in limb functions whereas the remaining patients had permanent neurologic im— pairment during follow—up. Conclusion: Gunshot wounds causes lower extremity vascular injury as— sociated with high risk of amputation if accompanied by severe bone fracture and soft tissue damage. Rapid diagnosis and early surgical intervention are essential to decrease the rate of amputation, and achieve functional recovery. Reconstructive surgery may be successfully performed for patients who are under risk for probable amputation.

Özet

Amaç: Dokudaki tahribatın ciddiyetine bağlı olarak, yakın mesafeden av tüfeğiyle yaralanan ekstremitede amputasyon çoğunlukla kaçınılmazdır. Bu çalışmada yakın mesafeden maruz kalınan diz altı av tüfeği yaralanmalarında ekstremitenin kurtarılması amacıyla ameliyat edilen hastaların cerrahi sonuçlarının tartışılması amaçlanmıştır. Gereç ve Yöntemler: Çalışma Mayıs 2012 ile Ekim 2013 tarihleri arasmda gerçekleştirilmiştir. Hastalara (9 hasta) ait demografik veriler, operatif pa-- rametreler ve postoperatif döneme ait sonuçlar prospektif olarak kayıt altına alınmıştır. Bulgular: Tüm hastalarda parçalı tibia kırığı mevcutken, hastada ek olarak fibula kırığı bulunmaktaydı. Pos-- terior tibial arter en çok (8 hastada) yaralanan damardı. Beş hastada diz altı iki arterde, ve hastada ise üç arterde de yaralanma mevcuttu. Dört hastaya primer tamir uygulanırken, 3'üne otolog safen ven ile greft interpozisyonu, hastaya da popliteal arterden kan getirmek üzere distal baypas uy-- gulandı. Viabilitesini yitiren dokular rezeke edildi. Kemik kırıklarına sıklıkla eksternal fiksasyon uy-- gulandı. Sinir yaralanmaları primer tamir edildi. Medyan hastane kalış süresi 11 gündü (8-15 gün). Dört hastada ekstremite fonksiyonlarında düzelme gözlenirken, kalan hastada takipte kalıcı nörolojik etkilenme olduğu saptandı. Sonuç: Ciddi kemik kırığı ve yumuşak doku hasarı mevcudi-- yetinde, av tüfeği yaralanmaları alt ekstremitede yüksek amputasyon riskini beraberinde getir-- mektedir. H1211 tani ve erken rekonstruktif cerrahi amputasyon oranını azaltmada ve fonksiyonel düzelmeyi sağlamada önem arz etmektedir. Amputasyona gitmesi muhtemel vakalarda rekons-- truktif cerrahi başarılı sonuçlar sağlayabilmektedir.
