[Limb salvage versus amputation after severe lower extremity injury : Cases from clinical practice].

N Hawi1, C Krettek2, C W Müller2.   

Abstract

Following severe lower extremity injury, the potential outcome of a salvage procedure might often be questionable. Objective criteria should help in decision-making. From the clinical practice of a level I trauma center, we demonstrate three case reports and approaches following severe lower extremity injury.
