A report on a case of successful replantation of an excised segment of forearm tissue is presented. An 18 year old man was admitted to hospital with a completely excised segment of the radial side of his forearm and wrist as a result of a circular saw injury. The best reconstructive option was replantation of the excised radial forearm tissue thus providing both soft tissue cover and bony stabilization.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
