[Amputation injuries of large extremity segments. Clinical management].
Amputating injuries are often combined with multiple trauma. The management of these serious traumas has to consider survival more than restoration of function and extremity preservation. Out of 51 patients with 60 macroamputation injuries only one case was successful in replantation. The leading rule in the treatment of macroamputation still must be life before limb, as our series of the years 1988 up to 1991 clearly shows.
