Abstract/OtherAbstract:
This report was designed to aid the primary care physician who is confronted with traumatic amputations, and to suggest treatment and triage guidelines. Giant strides have been made in the past 25 years in the area of microsurgery. It is now possible to salvage a digit or limb that in earlier times would have been lost. The most important steps begin at out lying hospitals at which the patient is first evaluated. This exciting new area of surgery requires education and standardization of treatment to afford the patient the best care possible.
