Despite the availability of guidelines for the surgical management of open tibia fractures set out by developed countries, the adherence of the surgical teams to current recommendations is explored sparsely in resource-poor surgical settings. Here, we report current practice and orthoplastic care gaps at managing open tibia fractures at the National Hospital of Sri Lanka [NHSL].
