Abstract
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of the use of polypropylene prostheses in the treatment of extensive limb injuries. Methods There were 13 patients evaluated for the final aspects of the treatment, including the presence of epithelization and granulation, reduction of raw area, and coverage of deep structures. Results A reduction greater than 40% of the raw area in all cases and complete coverage of noble structures were visualized. Conclusion An effective, reproducible, low-cost alternative for treating extensive injuries has been demonstrated.
