Retrospective of the replantation of severed limbs in the People's Republic of China: current status and prospects.

Thirty-eight years have past since Chinese surgeons first reported the successful replantation of a severed limb. The following article reports the current status of replantation surgery in the People's Republic of China, addresses issues of complex replantation and reconstruction of severed limbs, and discusses future prospects and implications for replantation microsurgery.

[Island bone graft from the second metacarpal to the first metacarpal].

We report a case of reconstruction of the first metacarpal by using an extended vascularized bone graft taken from the distal part of the second metacarpal. Following a gunshot injury, a 57 year-old man presented with a thumb amputated at the interphalangeal joint level and an index finger amputated at the metacarpophalangeal joint level. After lengthening of the first metacarpal over a six weeks period, the bone gap was filled using a vascularized 2.4 cm-length piece of the second metacarpal. This graft was vascularized by the dorsal vascular network of the first web space. At two months, the bone fixation was removed. At five months, the bony integration was complete.
