Overview

A trauma patient is a person suffering from a life-threatening or very serious injury as a result of certain events like gunshots, or car accidents or falls, etc. The injuries from trauma may affect various parts of the body that may include internal organs, the extremities or the brain. A reconstructive trauma surgeon does have specialized training on reconstructive trauma surgery to restore the function of damaged parts after traumatic physical injuries.

Procedure

Normally patients undergo treatment for trauma immediately after a traumatic incident and can get care at the closest facility. However, despite the best efforts, there can be disfigurement or functional issues related to the parts suffered due to a traumatic incident. In such a case, reconstructive trauma surgery can be of immense help and it can help to restore and rebuild the functionality after recovery from various types of trauma.

Among various types of reconstructive surgeries, the most widely performed reconstruction surgery remains the reconstruction of breasts after mastectomy. Virtually all types of post-traumatic surgeries like facial reconstruction surgery involve repairing soft tissue injuries using stitches. The microsurgery technique can help to treat the salivary glands, facial nerves, salivary ducts, and there can be a correction of soft tissue asymmetry deficiency or misalignment after an initial traumatic repair.

There are many serious facial injuries that involve repairing the facial bone fracture, and with the repairing of the facial bone, the form and function of facial form can improve. The surgeon uses a plate and screws fixation to stabilize the facial structure and may cut the tissues, nerves, blood vessels and the facial bones using a variety of surgical techniques. You will be under anesthesia during the procedure and the surgeon will carry out the whole procedure while you are asleep. 

If your bone is asymmetric and the bite is off, a post-traumatic procedure can help to correct and improve the condition in many cases. Other parts of the body may act as the donor site for donating the bones and tissues. In most cases, such procedure takes around four to 12 hours and in some cases more than that depending on the complexity of the cases.

Preparation for the surgery

The surgeon may ask you to get blood tests and also to adjust your medications before surgery. You should quit smoking well in advance of the surgery to get recovery faster and to avoid possible complications. There can be special instructions that you should follow after surgery and you should arrange your own transportation after the surgery.

Expectations after the procedure: 

There can be permanent marks for the soft tissue injuries, despite undergoing the best closure procedure. Your physician may advise you about the need for secondary scar revisions to improve the appearance of bothersome scars. Your physician will also provide an aftercare plan and there will be scheduled routine checkups also. You should get plenty of rest and the right nutrition and it can make a lot of improvement to the recovery process.
