    In this case report, we present the management of a dramatic and rare combination of injuries: high-voltage electrical injury, chemical burn, and open tibial and calcaneal fractures resulting from a fall from height. The patient underwent early fasciotomies. After treatments administered by a multidisciplinary team consisting of plastic surgeons, general surgeons, orthopedic specialists, anesthesiologists, and physiotherapists, the patient was discharged without extremity loss after a 135-day hospital stay. This case report discusses the importance of early fasciotomy and debridement in management of extensive burns and fall-related injuries, the potential for extended hospitalization for reconstruction, and the necessity of a multidisciplinary approach.
