Vessels and nerves transfer in reconstructive microsurgery. 1979

R W Pho

This paper describes the application of re-routing neighbouring vessels and nerves to restore circulation and sensation in cases where there are vessel and nerve loss. The sources of donor vessels and nerves are discussed. Its use in salvaging the degloved and avulsed digits and skin in the hand is established. The extension of this technique in restoring sensation in paraplegic patients is promising.
