Port Blair, May 14: A 20-year-old ITI student was brought to GBPH with fracture of left thigh bone and multiple breaks of lower leg bones on the same side. He had met with a road traffic accident at Lamba Line on 16th March, 2024. As the patient was brought to the hospital, he was bleeding profusely since all the long bones of his left leg were badly fractured. After the patient’s blood loss was restored, his thigh bone was operated upon by the Orthopedics team on 17th March. The definitive surgery for the fracture of bones of lower leg (below knee) was purposively delayed since a large part of skin was lost, exposing the bone. However, regular dressing was being done to prevent infection of the injury site.
