    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Hand Surgery
    • Microsurgery

    Background:

    • Severe hand injuries, such as those from gunshot wounds, present significant reconstructive challenges.
    • Thumb reconstruction is critical for hand function and requires robust tissue transfer.
    • Traditional methods may involve multiple stages, prolonged immobilization, or donor site complications.
