| dc.description.abstract | The lower extremity is the most common body region injured in modern warfare which is characterised by proliferation of explosive weapons. Personnel on foot (dismounted) attacked by anti-personnel mines sustain predominantly an open pelvic fracture with disruption at the pubic symphysis (PS) and sacroiliac (SI) joint, with a high incidence of traumatic amputation and vascular injury, which sometimes is fatal. The mechanism of this injury is not known. We postulate that the dismounted injury pattern may be due to predominantly axial load through the lower limb or due to lower extremity flail. The aim of this study was to investigate these two injury mechanisms. | en_US |
