Popis: In the last decades there has been an increase in the rate of high-energy traumas. They lead to multiple traumatic injuries, affecting different organs and body systems. The approach to these multi-trauma patients is complex and requires the cooperation of a multi-disciplinary team of experts working together. Orthopaedic treatment is generally considered after vital parameters have been stabilized, but should not be excessively postponed to avoid complications at the time of surgery. Upper limb injuries are frequent but often misdiagnosed and not adequately treated. The authors describe the current treatment of the most frequent injuries of shoulder, elbow, wrist and hand in polytrauma patients.
