Clin Case Rep. 2019 Feb 7;7(3):546-549. doi: 10.1002/ccr3.2040. eCollection 2019 Mar.

Abstract

Replantation combined with simultaneous ectopic implantation can be considered in patients with multiple finger amputation injury. This technique has the advantages of reducing the operating time and optimizing hemodynamic stability. However, it is only possible when multiple hand and microsurgery team can be organized at short notice.
