Management of a Sever Degloving Foot Injury: A Rare Presentation of food injury in Emergency Department
Abstract
Occupational crash injuries of the foot present a significant reconstructive challenge due to the superficial location of
structures such as tendon, joint and neurovascular network essential for proper acceptance of weight bearing and shear
forces associated with bipedal gait. We discussed here a rare case in which an extensive degloving injury of the foot and
combined with knee traumatic dislocation and proximal fibula tip fracture that underwent amputation. The authors
suggested that none of treatment modalities of degloving are entirely satisfactory, so that each case must be considered
independently with cons and pros.

Geniş Eldiven-parmak Tarzı Ayak Yaralanmasına Bir Yaklaşım; Acil Serviste Nadir Görülen Bir Olgu Sunumu
Abstract
Ayağın iş kazalarıyla ilgili parçalı yaralanmalarının rekonstrüksiyonu iki ayaklı yürüme ile ilişkili düzgün
kabul edilebilir yük taşıma ve kesme kuvvetleri için gereken tendon, eklem ve nörovasküler ağ yapılarının
yüzeysel yerleşimi nedeniyle çok zordur. Biz burada travmatik diz eklemi dislokasyonu ve fibula proximal
uç fraktürünün eşlik ettiği ayak amputasyunu ile sonuçlanan ayağın nadir görülen geniş eldiven tarzı bir
yaralanmasını tartıştık. Sonuç olarak yazarlar eldiven tarzı yaralanmalarda hiçbir tedavi yöntemi tümüyle
tatmin edici olmadığından her vaka bağımsız olarak artı ve eksileriyle birlikte değerlendirilmesi gerektiğini
önermektedir.
