In case of poly-trauma the early operations of osteosynthesis under fractures of long bones, unstable fractures of pelvis and backbone bones being an operational trauma, can provoke progression of inflammatory reaction, development of systemic complications and poly-organ inadequacy i.e. causing a «second hit» effect. The pathophysiologic mechanisms of «second hit» phenomenon are complicated and they are implementing by means of modulation of immune response. The risk of development of the given phenomenon depends on period of implementation and method of osteosynthesis, severity of injuries and condition, age, concomitant pathology of patient, presence of chest trauma and craniocerebral trauma. The study of pathophysiology of «second hit» phenomenon is perspective for development and optimization of clinical concepts of treatment of patients with poly-trauma and skeletal damages.
