Abstract

By integrating of special techniques of hand surgery, microsurgery, and plastic surgery into the case of replantations and severe crush amputations, a result can be achieved which improves the function and thus shortens the time of treatment. According to the extent of the injury this can be achieved by immediate reconstruction of bony defects, by bridging long vascular defects and by late-primary soft tissue coverage.
