Abstract
12 cases of finger transposition during replantation using microvascular techniques are reported. In multiple injuries of the hand, it is sometimes necessary to reconstruct fingers depending on their functional importance, when it is not possible to make a precise anatomical reconstruction owing to the destruction of the various amputated parts. The functional results following finger transposition are comparable to the results following 500 finger replantations in our hospital.
