Summary
Arterialized venous flaps offer a solution for digital defects, overcoming previous challenges with venous congestion. A novel reverse flow shunt technique effectively managed venous congestion in a specific ring avulsion case.
Area of Science:
- Plastic Surgery
- Reconstructive Surgery
- Microsurgery
Background:
- Arterialized venous flaps are viable for digital defect reconstruction.
- Previous limitations included high rates of venous congestion.
- Techniques to restrict arteriovenous shunting aim to improve outcomes.
