The study presents 25 years experience of treatment of 151 patients with 162 traumatic crus dislocations in 153 knee joints including 23 open dislocations in 23 patients. Special attention is paid to the diagnostic difficulties of nerves and vessels injuries in the popliteal fossa, particularly at the inclusion of transient compensatory mechanism. Analysis of the treatment of open crus dislocations with various complications is performed; recommendations on their optimum diagnosis and treatment are given.
