Abstract
From Fabuary 1982 to May 1995, 396 patients had undergone reconstructive surgery of the upper and lower limb with microsurgical technique at department of orthopaedic surgery, Yonsei University of Medicine. The results were as follows; 1. Average age at the time of operation was 23.4years(2-64 years), and there were 277 male and 119 female patients. 2. Among 324 patients of soft tissue flap(87 inguinal flap, 132 scapular flap, 38 latissimus dorsi flap, 11 latissimus dorsi and scapular combind flap, 6 gracilis flap, 12 deltoid flap, 3 tensor facia lata flap, 11 dorsalis pedis flap, 6 lateral thigh flap, 12 wrap around flap, 1 lateral arm flap, 5 musculocutaneous flap), 274 cases(85.5%) were succeed. 3. Among 37 patients of vascularized bone graft(18 fibular bone graft, 11 iliac bone graft, 7 toe to finger transplantation,1 vascular pedicle rib graft), 30 cases(80.1%) were succeed. 4. In 26 cases of segmental resection and rotationplasty at lower extremity, 23 cases were succeed. 5. In 7 cases of Tikhoff-Linberg procedure and in 2 case of segmental resection and replantation, all case was succeed. Overall success rate of microscopic reconstructive surgery was 85.6%. In conclusion, microsurgical technigue is valuable for reconstruction of tissue defect or function loss of the limb.
