Successful replantation of a leg--a 7-year follow-up.
This paper presents the 7-year follow-up of successful replantation in a patient whose right leg was amputated. The patient's daily activities surpass those that would have otherwise been attained by the use of an artificial leg. The authors believe that this patient is one of the most successful cases of replantation of the leg, with a long follow-up period.
