Abstract
Trauma can result in either complete amputation of fingers or devascularization of parts. Microsurgical techniques have made the salvage of devascularized digits possible. Although algorithms for digital replantation and revascularization exist, these procedures remain technically difficult and tedious. In multiple digit injuries, the complexity of replantation and revascularization is significantly increased. From our combined experience, we have found many "tricks" that have optimized digital replantation. In this paper, the current indications and contraindications for digital replantation and the technique of replantation are presented with specific reference to 12 simple maneuvers designed to maximize simplicity and efficiency.
