ABSTRACT
The reconstruction of posttraumatic defects of bone and soft tissue, as well as residual deformities of the bone is often a lengthy and complicated procedure. Multiple surgical interventions are necessary to reconstruct the affected extremity and restore its functionality. To achieve an optimal result it often takes months or years and requires great patience and compliance of the patient. This treatment should be carried out in centers with the appropriate instrumental and human resources. Since the pathologies are often complex with bony deformities or loss of bone, as well as infections and soft tissue defects, the treatment should be carried out by very experienced surgeons to successfully manage these complex reconstructions. This often requires interdisciplinary cooperation, especially with experienced plastic surgeons. A soft tissue reconstruction for better blood circulation in the exposed bony structures, as well as the bony defects themselves, can be reconstructed at the same time.
