This study includes 19 cases of complicated low extremity injury to whom underwent microvascular free-tissue transfer in cases of open comminuted fracture, osteomyelitis, and vascular compromise or extensive soft tissue defect from Nov. 1994 to July 1997. The average time after injury to coverage was 25 days. The nineteen patients underwent a total of nineteen free tissue transfers primarily, and eighteen (94.7 per cent) of the transfers survived. Major complications were encountered recurrent failure of the free tissue transfer in one patient and partial necrosis in the other flap, which were successfully treated by flow-through radial forearm free flap and distally based superficial sural artery flap respectively. Two patients were sustained below knee amputation, one above knee amputation, despite of survival of flaps. This reveals limb salvage in 84 percent. The microvascular reconstruction is a versatile and reliable methods in complicated cases after severe trauma. Free tissue transplantation should be considered as a primary treatment in such complicated cases.

From retrospective review of 111 tibial fractures treated by interlocking intramedullary nailing, 38 operative errors in 28 cases(25%) were included in this study. The errors were classified into two categories. The first category included eighteen errors that related to fracture reduction; nine angular malalignments, four failures in closed nailing to open the fracture site, two peroneal nerve palsies, two shortenings of tibial length(more than 1cm), and one rotational malalignment. The second category comprised twenty errors that related to the nailing itself; eight protrusions of proximal nail tip, five overdistractions of fracture gap (more than 3mm), four additional fragmentations, two mistakes in interlocking screw insertion, and one ankle joint injury by the distal nail tip. Functional results of those 28 cases at the last follow-up(average, 17.5 months; range, 9 to 29 months) were excellent or good in only 60.8 per cent, while the control group treated by adequate operative technique showed excellent or good results in 92.8 per cent.
