AbstractSoft-tissue defects in the extremities vary greatly, depending on the trauma mechanism, localization and a number of factors related to the patient's physical condition. We offer an overview of the plastic surgery methods in reconstruction of different soft-tissue defects in the extremities, beginning with the diagnostic, clinical and radiological measures that make classification of soft-tissue defects possible, and then giving a concentrated view of the appropriate reconstruction methods. Collaboration between traumatology and plastic surgery seems to be especially important in lesions in the extremities.
