The use of arteriovenous anastomosis for venous drainage during Tamai zone I fingertip replantation

摘要

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate outcomes for patients sustaining a distal fingertip amputation who underwent replantation witharteriovenous anastomosis for venous drainage over a one year period at our institution. This technique has been utilized when insufficient veins are identified in the amputated part for standard veno-venous anastomosis.
