ABC: principles of war surgery
In the sixth in a series of 12 articles, Mannion and Chaloner (p 1498) address the management of war wounds by non-specialist surgeons with limited resources and expertise. The authors describe the wounding patterns of gunshot wounds and blast injuries and take the reader step by step through treating war injuries: initial measures, wound assessment, wound excision, and delayed primary closure, and also describe the principles of amputation surgery for war wounds.
