ABSTRACT
PURPOSE:
We report the results of replantations which was intentionally delayed for a certain period of time in patients with an amputation of multiple digits, both hands or the single digit presented at night. MATERIALS ANDMETHODS:
Two staged intentianlly delayed replantations were performed in twenty patients. Three patients had amputations of four or more fingers, two had bilateral hand amputations and fifteen had a single digit amputation.RESULTS:
The mean warm ischemic time was 3 hours and 58 minutes. The mean cold ischemic time was 2 hours and 36 minutes for the first operation, and 15 hours and 13 minutes for the second operation. Twenty digits out of 28 digits (85%) survived completely. At the mean follow-up of months, functional results according to Chen's criteria were rated as excellent in six patients, good in eight, and fair in five.CONCLUSION:
When the patients had multiple finger amputations, bilateral hand amputations or presented late at night, intentional delay of the replantation also provide satisfactory outcomes.
