Abstract
Temporizing care has become a critical part of the treatment armamentarium for select foot and ankle injuries. Indications for performing temporizing care are based on the specific injury pattern, the host, associated injuries, as well as surgeon resources. Foot and ankle injuries are often associated with severe adjacent injury to the soft tissue sleeve. An acute procedure performed through a traumatized soft tissue envelope will often lead to the failure of wound healing and/or infectious complications. Thus, delayed reconstruction of acute foot and ankle injuries is often advisable in these cases.
