Management of Unique Complex Long Bone Fractures by Gunshot Injuries with Linear Rail System

The uniqueness of complex long bone fractures by gunshot injuries with extensive soft tissue and fractures especially with cases of bone loss due to the injury or from the debridement required a faster, simpler and more acceptable device that will achieve the desired result. The use of LRS in this study was a good option to achieve soft tissue care, infection control, fracture union, restore limb length and rehabilitation to restore function with satisfactory outcome. However, appropriate patients counselling and education about the device and the likely outcome are imperative parts of the keys to the success.
