Microsurgery is a surgical discipline that allows tissue to be transferred from one part of the body to another, while ensuring the perfusion of the transplanted tissue. This is accomplished through the use of specialized instruments and a surgical microscope.
Clinical examples of microsurgery include the reattachment of amputated body parts (ie, replantation) or the transplantation of loose tissue for the purpose of reconstructing tissue defects from trauma. The key to success is ensuring that there is adequate blood flow to the tissue in question.
Reconstructive Surgery also treats cases of Hand Surgery such as wounds and severe traumas of the hand, nerve, tendon and bone injuries of the hand.
Some of the procedures performed for Hand Surgery are:
Reconstruction surgery of the traumatic hand.
• Carpal tunnel syndrome. Symptoms tend to manifest primarily in the thumb, index finger, middle finger, and half of the ring finger because the median nerve supplies sensation to these areas.
