✦ Synopsis

The development of extremity replantation and reconstructive microsurgery was initially carried out independently among the pioneering centers throughout the world. The comparative development of these techniques is outlined. With the fast growth of microsurgical procedures, many of the U.S. residency programs have incorporated microsurgery training into the curriculum.
