Initial Management

  • Reduce dislocation
  • Evaluate pre and post neurovasc status
  • Ankle Brachial Index (ABI)
  • Consider vascular referral

– Abnml ABI (<0.9) – Hx of vascular diagnosis – Other physical findings

  • (expanding hematoma popliteal fossa)
  • High energy- good secondary survey when able

OR management

  • Ex-Fix
  • Evaluate compartments

– Can measure intra-op (account for temp decr MAP intraop) – Prophylactic release if obtunded?

  • Return to fight another day

Treatment- Staged

  • Ex-fix-
  • Goals- reduced

knee, stable

  • Allow vascular

repair if necessary

Treatment- staged

  • Can get CT scan in reduced position to identify

fx patterns

– Look at pattern – Other fx lines

  • Can watch injury evolve

– Fx blisters – Compartment syndrome – Vascular injury

Treatment

  • Return to OR when stable
  • Good pre op plan
  • Appropriate team and equipment

– Want the A team – Is that you? – Is that you at Midnight?

  • Don’t get burned

Summary

  • Complex injury
  • Important to reduce to stable position and

evaluate for concomitant NV injuries and

  • ther system injury
  • Zone of injury may progress
  • Better to proceed cautiously and stage

treatment
