Use of Arterialized Venous Flaps to Preserve Full Digital Length in Revascularization of Partially Amputated Digits: Two Cases. [PDF]
Clin Case RepABSTRACT This case series illustrates the successful use of arterialized venous flaps (AVFs) in digital revascularization. AVFs facilitated tension‐free vascular anastomosis and provided soft tissue coverage, allowing preservation of digital length while restoring function.

Low molecular weight heparin for prevention of microvascular occlusion in digital replantation.
Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, 2020 BACKGROUND The success of digital replantation is highly dependent on the patency of the repaired vessels after microvascular anastomosis. Antithrombotic agents are frequently used for preventing vascular occlusion.

Replantation versus Prosthetic Fitting in Traumatic Arm Amputations: A Systematic Review.
PLoS ONE, 2015 BackgroundTraumatic arm amputations can be treated with replantation or surgical formalization of the stump with or without subsequent prosthetic fitting. In the literature, many authors suggest the superiority of replantation.
