Venous Coupler in Pediatric Free Tissue Transfer: Case Series and Literature Review

摘要

Venous couplers have gained widespread acceptance as an effective, safe, and time-efficient alternative for hand-sewn anastomosis in microsurgical reconstruction. The literature on venous couplers use in pediatric free tissue transfer is scant. The purpose of this study is to present our experience with coupler-assisted venous anastomosis in young pediatric free flap reconstruction.
