“…13 In addition to body signs and symptoms, an AF has significant negative effects on the quality of life (QOL) of patients, associated with functional disability for numerous activities, particularly in older populations. 14 In fact, advanced age is considered a negative factor for returning to physical activity up to 1 year after AF. 15 It has been reported that patients aged 45 years and older are 3 times less likely to return to their work than younger patients.…”

Context: Ankle fractures (AFs) are the most common fractures of the lower limbs found in emergency services. Approximately 53% of these fractures are unstable and treated surgically. Objective: To conduct a systematic review evaluating functional outcomes and quality of life of patients with AFs surgically treated. Evidence Acquisition: A systematic review was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic reviews and Meta-Analyses statement. Five electronic databases were searched, without any limit on publication dates. Only patients with an unstable AF that was surgically treated were included; functional outcomes and the quality of life were controlled by the 36-Item Short-Form Health Survey instrument. Evidence Synthesis: Five studies were included in the analysis, including 267 patients. The values of the Physiotherapy Evidence Database scale ranged between a minimum of 5 and a maximum of 7 points. Patients with surgically treated AF reported less functionality and physical capacity compared with the nonfractured population. Some patients experienced vitality, emotional, and mental health limitations for a long period. Most surgically treated patients reported no pain and a good health and social status. Conclusion: Limitations in functionality and physical capacity represent the main threats to health-related quality of life in patients with surgically treated AFs.

“…Complex foot and ankle trauma is an event that affects the lives of patients, represents a high cost for healthcare systems, and has an impact on the productive activity of countries. 24 – 26 This form of trauma often results in some degree of disability, and is therefore a veritable treatment challenge. In this scenario, there is an area not yet adequately defined between injuries that cannot be reconstructed and those where the best outcome is amputation.…”

Soft-Tissue Injury to the Foot and Ankle: Literature Review and Staged Management Protocol

Complex trauma of the foot and ankle is characterized by fractures with severe soft tissue damage associated with neurovascular injury and joint involvement. These injuries are frequently present in the polytraumatized patient and are a predictor of unfavorable clinical outcome. In the initial approach to a patient with complex foot and ankle trauma, the decision between amputation and reconstruction is crucial. The various existing classification systems are of limited effectiveness and should serve as tools to assist and support a clinical decision rather than as determinants of conduct. In the emergency department, one of two treatment options must be adopted: early complete treatment or staged treatment. The former consists of definitive fixation and immediate skin coverage, using either primary closure (suturing) or flaps, and is usually reserved for less complex cases. Staged treatment is divided into initial and definitive. The objectives in the first phase are: prevention of the progression of ischemia, necrosis and infection. The principles of definitive treatment are: proximal-to-distal bone reconstruction, anatomic foot alignment, fusions in severe cartilage lesions or gross instabilities, stable internal fixation and adequate skin coverage. Level of evidence III, Systematic review of level III studies.

“…Die Ergebnisse sind in der Regel schlechter als bei einseitiger Verletzung [3]. Die operative Rekonstruktion erfordert eine Belastungslimitierung über mehrere Wochen, was die postoperative Mobilisation, insbesondere die Gangschulung vor eine große Herausforderung stellt [4 -7] Nur wenn wir alle Einzelgesichtspunkte der Therapie komplexer beidseitiger Extremitätenverletzungen berücksichtigen, werden sich die Ergebnisse für unsere Patienten verbessern lassen und Erfolge hinsichtlich der posttraumatischen Lebensqualität verbuchen lassen [9,11,19].…”
