[Frostbite in modern fighting pathology].
In modern war 1-2% in the structure of fighting surgical pathology constitute the frostbites. In cold time of year their frequency increases up to 10%. Late admission of the injured to the stages of medical evacuation, their different and often limited diagnostic and therapeutic potentials influence on the outcomes of frostbites' treatment. The role of rational operative treatment with the use of surgical dermato-plastic methods rises. The analysis of periods, outcomes of treatment, restoration of working capacity and fitness for military service after the frostbites of different degrees and levels of injury permits to propose the military-and-medical classification of this trauma type. Slight, moderate and severe frostbites were selected. The places of final treatment of the injured with reference to the classical scheme of treatment- and evacuation support under conditions of the local armed conflict were determined.
