Trends in Digital Replantation: 10 Years of Experience at a Large Canadian Tertiary Care Center: Les tendances de la replantation digitale : dix ans d’expérience d’un grand centre canadien de soins tertiaires

Abstract: Background: Since 1965, the practice of digital replantation has seen great technical strides and become commonplace worldwide. However, some American authors have recently reported declining rates of replantation. We set out to characterize the patient population and describe treatment patterns from 2005 to 2016 at a large Canadian regional replantation center. Methods: A retrospective cohort of all patients undergoing digital replantation and revascularization from 2005 to 2016 was identified. Data were coll… Show more

“…A recent problem in Western and especially American countries is a declining replantation rate, resulting in less experience in digit replantation among surgeons and worse results concerning replantation success. Some explanations for that could be a change in workplace safety, injury characteristics, economic aspects, the surgeon's attitude, and a lack of technical skills [38,39]. This is the reason why actual studies examining functional results after digit replantations became rare in the last decade.…”

“…Digital replants and revascularization have been performed since the early 1960s (Solaja et al, 2021). Despite improvements in overall survival rates of replanted or revascularized digits, thrombosis of the micro‐anastomosed vessels remains a significant risk factor in the survival outcome of these digits (Navarro et al, 2019).…”
