Abstract: A case of right lower-leg replantation after 42-hr ischemia is presented. Revascularization of the other foot with circulatory decompensation after 36-hr ischemia was carried out simultaneously. The replanted lower leg survived.

The locomotor function in both lower extremities recovered.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
