Digital artery reconstruction with interposition vein graft: impact on secondary Raynaud's phenomenon.

Objective: Patients with secondary RP show a wide range of symptoms depending on the condition of vascular structures. If the symptoms are localized to specific fingers and angiography reveals a discrete segment of occlusion of a proper digital artery, we perform proper digital artery reconstruction with an interposition vein graft. The objective of this study was to evaluate the results of the surgery in patients with chronic hand ischaemia.
