Article Synopsis
- This study investigates the effectiveness of a modified Ilizarov external fixation device for closing complex limb wounds that are difficult to cover with skin flaps.
- A retrospective analysis included 43 patients, revealing that using tension-relieving traction significantly reduced wound size and improved healing times over a mean of 17 days.
- Results showed minimal complications, with successful closures achieved through direct healing, skin grafts, or sutures, indicating that this method is a promising approach for challenging wound management.
