Hand/Limb Microvascular Replantation Service

Preservation of the Amputated Part

We offer the region's only 24/7/365 microvascular replantation service. Our orthopedic team specializes in treating patients with the most severe hand injuries, including replantation of traumatic amputations, soft tissue reconstructions, vascular repair and traumatic brachia plexus injuries.
