Although the number of complications was high, the patients in this study were satisfied to have their limbs preserved. The SF-36 Health Survey showed that patients suffer mainly from physical and emotional consequences after these major injuries. Their general, social, and mental health is usually not affected. Infection significantly increased the healing index. The limb should be protected for a long time, with careful evaluation to avoid fracture at the docking site after fixator removal.
