Indications for replantation and factors that predict success

Dana Bregman,
Luke Nicholson

Abstract: Since the advent of replantation techniques, there has been uneven progress in terms of success—even considering whether success is defined as continued perfusion of the digit or long term functional outcomes. Early enthusiasm and success have not been maintained despite increasing familiarity with microsurgical techniques and greater understanding of how to optimize outcomes for the individual components of replantation such as tendon repair, nerve repair, and osteosynthesis. Practitioners participating in th… Show more

“…In this case, the repair of the peripheral nerves is postponed for a secondary procedure because abnormal soft-tissue edema appeared during the second phase of replantation. Other additional operations such as tenolysis, arthrolysis, bone reconstruction for nonunion or malunion 5,7,29 have not been performed.…”

“…The K-wire fixation placed in an axial configuration, intramedullary, is quick, atraumatic, technically easier and ensuring sufficient stability so that early passive motions are not critical 8 . It is recommended as a method of first choice in transmetacarpal replantation 7,8,21,29 . Stable osteosynthesis by plates and screws, or intraosseous metal wire in combination with K-wires (Lister procedure) or by two intraosseous wires placed perpendicularly to each other (90-90 wire procedure) are alternative options 24,25,26 .…”
