Abstract
The application of interpositional microvascular vein grafting in replantation surgery, a detailed account of the technique developed and utilised in the microvascular research and training laboratory, and clinical experience with this technique are described. Vein grafting is of particular value to eliminate tension in anastomoses, bridge vascular defects, and has made feasible the salvage of severe crushing and avulsion amputation in the hand.Keywords
