Abstract

With a beginning of active battle actions in Ukraine the number of victims with gunshot, mine-explosive and shrapnel injuries of the locomotor system among both the military and the civilian population increased sharply. Therefore, the problems of treatment and rehabilitation of victims of hostilities have become especially acute in the last year. Aim. To analyze literary sources on the issue of providing medical aid for gunshot injuries of the musculoskeletal system, to identify problems and prospective directions of rehabilitation treatment of the consequences of combat trauma. Methods. An analytical review of scientific works on the treatment of gunshot and mine-explosive injuries of the musculoskeletal system and their consequences was conducted. Results. It is shown that in recent decades, as a result of the creation of modern firearms and explosive shells, the scale and severity of traumatic injuries have increased significantly, and the frequency of multiple and combined injuries has also increased. Fire injuries of the musculoskeletal system are accompanied by many complications and unsatisfactory anatomical and functional results of treatment. Such injuries are characterized by a traumatic disease that develops in response to combat trauma and has a long and complicated course, high rates of mortality and severe disability. Extremity injuries are the most common — 65‒75 %, and in some combat operations — 80 % or more. The most serious injuries include mine-explosive injuries, which are accompanied by massive damage to the soft tissues of the limbs, main vessels and nerves, and the development of compartment syndrome. 19.1–52.9%) and permanent disability. Conclusions. Damages of the spine and spinal cord lead to high mortality (19.1–52.9 %) and permanent disability. Conclusions. Despite the significant number of developed restorative treatment and rehabilitation technologies victims with gunshot and mine-explosive injuries, specialists continue to improve methods of physical rehabilitation, and work on eliminating problems and shortcomings that still exist in the organization of rehabilitation measures.
