“…4 The third is the frequent use of four-compartment fasciotomy, s and the fourth is rigid stabilization of the bony structures so as not to disrupt the vascular repair. 6 Optimal timing and method of orthopedic fixation in these complex injuries continue to be controversial. Several authors have advocated primary vascular reconstruction before bony stabilization/ Others have proposed the additional use of a temporary vascular shunt to minimize ischemia time and allow maximal accessibility to injured vessels/However, this approach carries the risk of avulsion or further vascular injury during subsequent orthopedic manipulation.…”

scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
