title: [Reimplantation of severed fingers (author's transl)].
abstract: Finger reimplantation is actually feasible. Two cases of complete amputation and three of partial amputation are presented. There were four successes out of five. A partial reimplantation failed on the 12th postoperative day. The technique and the postoperative care are presented. Success does not depend solely on technique. Physiopathology of the microcirculation at the level of the anastomoses, not well known at present, conditions vascular patency and survival of the reimplanted finger.
