Primary wound closure in war amputations of the limbs
We have reviewed 75 amputees, 58 in the lower limb and 18 in the upper. Closed amputations was performed in 69 patients (92%) and an open procedure in six (8%). Wound infection occurred in six (8%) and one patient died from thromboembolism. Wound healing was normal in the remainder. The results of closed amputation in war conditions are very good, if performed within 6 hours of injury.
