نویسندگان
چکیده
This study reports four cases of hand avulsion at the proximal wrist level and multiple digits amputation were received in plastic and hand surgery unit during the year 2007-2008. All patients were male labors between 22-30 years old, and the amputation due to machine injuries. Successful replantation were achieved, after a period of follow up with occupational therapy all patients regain good functional and cosmetic results. This study proves the strong indication of replantation of multiple digits & hand amputations.

متن کاملThe Concept of Door-to-Surgery Time in Distal Digital Replantation
BACKGROUND Digital replantation has become a well-established technique that has revolutionized hand surgery. One of the most important factors to a successful replantation is less than 12 hours of warm and 24 hours of cold ischemia time. The purpose of this article was to present a concept of door-to-surgery time and test the hypothesis that success in distal digital replantation is associated...
