Key Department Guide

Trauma Orthopedics

Trauma orthopedics primarily diagnoses and treats fractures of the limbs, pelvic and acetabular fractures, joint dislocations, multiple injuries, and nonunion or malunion. Treatment emphasizes assessment of the injury mechanism, fracture classification, soft tissue injury identification, and damage control principles. Treatment includes reduction and fixation, external fixation, intramedullary nailing and plate fixation, and functional rehabilitation. For open fractures, compartment syndrome, vascular and nerve injuries, and pelvic instability, prompt intervention is crucial to minimize complications. Early surgery and multidisciplinary management are emphasized for elderly patients with hip fractures to reduce the risk of disability and death. Postoperative care includes monitoring for thrombosis, infection, nonunion, and functional recovery.
