Abstract:BackgroundAmputation of the wrist or distal forearm after high‐energy trauma due to a crushing mechanism is associated with complex tissue defects, making repair, and reconstruction challenging. Given the difficulty of this type of salvage, patients unfortunately experience a high revision amputation rate. However, a higher quality of life has been reported in patients with successful reconstructions. Herein, we described a protocolized approach for revascularization and reconstruction for functional hand salv… Show more
