Recovery of digital nerve function in toe-to-digit transplantation and digit-to-digit replantation was evaluated by transcutaneous constant current sine wave stimulation at 5-, 250-, and 2000-Hz frequencies to determine the current perception thresholds (CPT). For toe transplantation and digit repla
## Abstract This article discusses the incidence and sequence of secondary procedures following digital replantation. In published series addressing this topic, the overall frequency of postreplantation surgery ranged from 2.9β93.2%. Tendon procedures accounted for 47.2% of cases, and comprised the
## Abstract A case of a fiveβfinger amputation and avulsion injury with salvage of two digits combined with island flap coverage of the remaining skin defect is reported. The salvaged digits were replanted onto the ulnar and radial borders of the hand stump and rotated to oppose one another. ^1^ Re
