Crush and avulsion injuries of the foot: their evaluation and management.

It is difficult to assess the damage resulting from crush or avulsion injuries so they may be treated adequately. The authors present a systematic approach to evaluating tissue involved in foot trauma. They also discuss antibiotic and tetanus prophylaxis and a technique of bacterial quantification that is helpful in determining the advisability of primary or delayed wound closure.
