## Abstract This paper describes surgical techniques and results of lower extremity microsurgical reconstruction using vein grafts. During a 5 year period, free tissue transfers were used to reconstruct 118 lower extremity defects in 109 patients. In 28 of these cases (24%), saphenous vein grafts w

The incidence of hepatic venous stenosis is higher in partial liver transplantation. New methods for hepatic venous reconstruction in left liver transplantation, which secure wide anastomosis, were devised and are reported here. In the graft, the right side of the middle hepatic vein or the left sid
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. residen
The addition of the caudate lobe to a left liver graft is known to increase graft volume by 9% and has been shown to be useful for overcoming borderline graft-recipient size mismatch in adult living donor liver transplantation. To assure full graft viability and regeneration, all of the feeding vess
