Zusammenfassung:Development of a replantation program entails establishment of microsurgical skills in the laboratory, training in clinical microvascular technics, supervision, if possible, in the first microvascular free flaps, and close liaison with supporting personnel who transport patients, care for them acutely, and carry out their rehabilitation. Of twenty-six replantations or revascularizations (14 incomplete and 12 complete), twenty-three were successful. The three failures (1 complete and 2 incomplete procedures) were all digits, and each was part of a multiple digit injury.
