Plastic Surgery - Micro-vascular Surgery
Micro-vascular Surgery
Again most demanding area of plastic surgery both surgically as well as patience wise. It requires dedication and long hour of operations
It deals with:
- Major soft tissue/ composite tissiue loss reconstruction with free composite tissue transfers
- Traumatic limb injuries requiring vascular reconstruc
- tions
- Soft tissue losses over the face requiring free flaps
- Major cancer reconstructions requiring micro-vascular reconstructions
- All vascularisation and replantation of the limbs including both macro and micro replantations.
- Toes transfers for finger recibstruction in both traumatic loss and congenital absence of finger
- Free tissue transfers for external genitalia reconstruction secondary to trauma or any other cause
A micro-vascular laboratory forms an integral part of the department dealing with micro-vascular cases. It provides opportunity to upcoming micro-surgeons to practice and lean new technique on experimental animals. It also enhances scope for research work in the fiels.
