Summary

From a total number of 664 finger replantations (D II-D V) we were able to carry out a follow-up of 97 postoperative cases using the following assessment criteria: mobility, sensitivity, type of amputation, mechanism of injury, level and extent of amputation. Subjective criteria were also taken into account. Using the results of the study we have been able to formulate an evaluation as to the absolute indication for operation of fingers D II-D V.

Zusammenfassung

Von 664 Langfingern konnten bei 97 Spätergebnisse nach Replantationen überprüft werden: die Bewertungskriterien waren Beweglichkeit, Sensibilität, Amputationsart, Verletzungsmechanismus und Amputationshöhe. Subjektive Kriterien wurden berücksichtigt. Anhand dieser Ergebnisse wurden Kriterien erarbeitet zur Beurteilung einer absoluten Indikation zur Replantation von Langfingern.
