Extra-anatomic temporary intravascular shunting to assist with replantation of an amputated hand with prolonged ischemic time
Although temporary intravascular shunting has been reported to assist with hand revascularization and replantation after traumatic amputation, most reports have described using ipsilateral upper limb inflow. We present a case of a traumatic hand amputation in a patient who had presented with 4 to 5 ...

| description | Although temporary intravascular shunting has been reported to assist with hand revascularization and replantation after traumatic amputation, most reports have described using ipsilateral upper limb inflow. We present a case of a traumatic hand amputation in a patient who had presented with 4 to 5 hours of warm ischemic time. Because the replantation team believed that extra-anatomic revascularization would be necessary, we performed a novel type of temporary intravascular shunting by connecting two arterial sheaths placed in the ulnar and superficial femoral arteries. This permitted the hand to be successfully replanted away from the inflow source and resulted in a good long-term functional outcome. |
