Orthopaedic trauma accounts for a great deal of disability worldwide. There are many impoverished nations affected by war wherein victims suffer blast injuries associated with mines, missiles, high-powered gunshots, and bombings. One way to address this is through international medical missions sponsored by industrialized nations. It is imperative that practitioners have a basic understanding of the type of injuries that may be encountered in these nations impacted by war and conflict. Therefore, we described a small number of various lower extremity injuries seen by one orthopaedic surgeon during his volunteer medical mission to Jordan. Frequently, these injuries did result in the loss of a limb and/or function as the patients were treated without appropriate instrumentation or facilities in a suboptimal environment. Treatment was frequently delayed, and many of the surgeons involved lacked optimal training. It is our hope that this case series will lead to studies which may give guidance regarding how to best treat these complex injuries with optimal outcomes and minimal complications.
