Abstract
The author describes the use of external skeletal fixation in the management of complicated septic limb fractures. Eight fractures in seven patients were treated at Sololo General Hospital using a low cost, simple external device, with good results. The report emphasizes how external fixation can solve difficult fracture cases in small up-country hospitals; a good example of appropriate technology at district level.
