Leech therapy in nearly total amputation of fingers without vascular repair: a case report.

Introduction: In the absence of microvascular replantation or in crash injury cases in which obtaining an acceptable function is not possible, amputation of the injured finger seems to be the best treatment modality. Some studies recommended leech therapy for this kind of injury after vascular repair to decrease venous congestion.

Case Presentation: In this case report, the authors presented a case of leech therapy after near total amputation of the fingers.
