Tendon-Nervous-Vessel accidents and injuries
The most common injuries in hand surgery are artery-nerve and tendon injuries. Although there is no limb loss problem for these injuries that require urgent surgical intervention, late intervention becomes an irreversible loss of function for an organ where recovery and gaining functionality are important.
Loss of limb (Hand and Finger Severance and injuries- Replantation)
It includes injuries that result in loss of limb by the complete or partial separation of our fingers and arm from the body, starting from the wrist. In such injuries, blood circulation must be ensured for the life of the severed limb, which we call replantation, and then an operation that requires microsurgery in which other structures are repaired must be performed. The blood circulation provided while the structures are repaired under the microscope is the most important factor for the limb to survive. The fact that the limb is not completely disconnected from the body does not mean that it will live without intervention, while it has a positive effect on the intervention period. Appropriate cold storage conditions should be arranged by health teams and delivered to the surgical intervention center as soon as possible according to the type of limb injury and location.
Hand injuries, tissue defects and fractures
Hands and fingers are the most injured parts of our body, as a result of falling, fractures will occur in many bones and joints that cannot carry the full load, as well as soft tissue injuries and tissue defects. While splints and appropriate surgical techniques are used for fractures, tissue transfers are performed for tissue defects, resulting in faster and better healing.
