A RARE CAUSE OF COMPLEX HEEL DEFECT: FREE FALLING OF ELEVATOR

Journal Title: Çukurova Anestezi ve Cerrahi Bilimler Dergisi - Year 2019, Vol 2, Issue 2

Abstract

Soft tissue defects of calcaneal region mostly result from trauma, infections or tumors. Jumping or falling from height, traffic accidents and gunshot wounds are the leading traumas that cause soft tissue defect at the calcaneal region. Even if falling or jumping from height are frequently reported as a cause of calcaneal region injury, no study reporting complex hell injury as a result of free falling of elevator is seen. Reporting successful microsurgical reconstruction of a Gustillo Type 3B calcaneus fracture as a result of free falling of an elevator is aimed.
