Abstract
Objective:
To analyse and report the reconstruction of forearm function by fibular transfer with vascular anastomoses.
Methods:
Fourteen cases of forearm function dismissed due to defects of bone were managed by fibular transfer with vascular anastomoses.
Results:
All cases obtained satisfactory effects, and recovered their normal function.
Conclusion:
The vascularized fibular transfer is a good method to reconstruct the forearm function with defects of bone resulting from injury or tumor.
