The road is like a tiger's mouth Many people just walk on the road, but they may be hit by motorcycles at high speed! There is a 54-year-old man from Wang Xing in Changhua County. Recently, due to the motorcycle rider's too fast speed, he could not avoid it, resulting in six large fractures of his right calf and numerous small broken bones. The situation is very bad. Generally speaking, because of fear of life-threatening, amputation is usually taken. However, according to the judgment of plastic surgeon Lv Mingchuan and orthopedic surgeon Li of Changhua Hospital, the right calf of the old man can be reconstructed, so he had an emergency operation. After the operation, the old man Wang Xing's right calf has fully recovered and his life is very good.
It is not a dream for plastic surgery patients to restore their beauty in the emergency room.
Xie Wenhuai, president of Changhua Hospital, said that there are generally no plastic surgeons in emergency rooms of general hospitals. Changhua Hospital promotes strengthening emergency response plan, especially bringing plastic surgeons into emergency room, mainly because many trauma patients need plastic surgery, not only to restore their beauty, but more importantly, plastic surgeons can immediately judge how to fill muscle defects, how to transplant skin and body, and immediately carry out plastic reconstruction surgery when patients' vital signs are stable.
Soft tissue reconstruction and healthy limb recovery
Plastic surgeon Lu Mingchuan pointed out that when the patient rushed to the emergency room that day, his right leg was severely open fracture, his tibia was exposed, and he lost a lot of blood, which had reached the third grade of Gu's open fracture classification, and the situation was quite critical. Debridement was the main way to stop bleeding and stabilize vital signs at that time. However, in order to save the old man's right calf, the orthopedic surgeon Li Xian fixed the tibia, and then Lv Mingchuan reconstructed the soft tissue. Under the full care of the hospital, the old man finally recovered from a calf.
Grasping the golden period of operation to prevent amputation nightmare
Li Binglun, a plastic surgeon at Taipei Rongzong Suao Branch, reminded that severe open fractures of the lower limbs are often accompanied by soft tissue defects, which can be divided into proximal, middle and distal parts according to the location. Proximal and middle tissue defects can be reconstructed with local muscle flaps, while distal defects usually require microsurgery, but we must grasp the golden age and avoid amputation.
