The article makes a theoretical substantiation of regional dehydration in the treatment of the posttraumatic swellings in bone fractures of the extremities. The state of regional hemodynamics in 226 patients with the affections of bones and vessels of the extremities was studied using clinical, functional and angiographical methods. The authors make a conclusion concerning the efficiency of the proposed method of treatment for posttraumatic swellings of the extremities, which is based on the rapid enhancing of the mole-factor in the blood plasma in order to recover optimal conditions for the exchange process and microcirculation. This method of regional dehydration is proposed by the authors as an alternative to the fasciotomy which is based on mechanical influence upon extravasal squeezing of vessels.
