Abstrakt: In a series of six patients, a single-bar anterior external fixator was used to treat combined vascular and orthopedic injuries of the leg. This method of external fixation facilitated operative vascular exposure without sacrificing bony stability or alignment. It may be the preferred method of external fixation for these complex injuries.
