Austrian surgeons, trained at the famous surgical school in Vienna, played a very important role in general and reconstructive surgery at the end of the 19th century. Nicoladoni introduced original ideas in reconstructive hand surgery, including a tubed pedicle flap and, later, a toe-to-hand transfer to replace amputated parts of a thumb.

Temporary ectopic banking as a treatment option for mangled thumb: a case report.
J Med Case Rep
January 2025
Bone and Joint Diseases Research Center, Shiraz University of Medical Sciences, Shiraz, Iran.
Background: Management of the extensive soft tissue injuries remains a significant challenge in orthopedic and plastic reconstructive surgery. Since the thumb is responsible for 40% of the functions of the hand, saving and reconstructing a mangled thumb is essential for the patient's future.
Case Presentation: This case report describes the management of a severe occupational thumb injury in a 25-year-old white Persian male who sustained an occupational injury to his left thumb, resulting in extensive burn, crush injury to the distal and proximal phalanx, and severe soft tissue damage to the first metacarpal, thenar, and palmar areas.
Impact of single versus dual arterial supply on perfusion and function in finger replantation after complex hand injuries.
Sci Rep
January 2025
Department of Plastic, Aesthetic, Hand and Reconstructive Surgery, Hannover Medical School, Carl-Neuberg-Str. 1, D-30625, Hannover, Germany.
Finger amputations following complex hand injuries (CHI) pose a significant challenge in hand surgery due to severe tissue trauma and neurovascular damage, necessitating precise arterial repair. While restoring arterial perfusion is critical, it remains unclear whether reconstructing both proper palmar digital arteries is required for optimal outcomes. This study evaluates whether restoring one or both arteries in finger replantation after complex injuries impacts perfusion and overall outcomes.

Ann Vasc Surg
January 2025
Department of Surgery, University Hospital Centre Zagreb, Zagreb, Croatia.
Objectives: Brachial artery injury due to displaced supracondylar fracture (SC) of the humerus in children may present with pink pulseless hand (PPH), denoting a well perfused hand without radial pulse, or acute hand ischemia. Some reports state that brachial artery reconstruction is not necessary in children with persisting PPH, but the reports on long-term consequences such as intermittent claudications, growth retardation and ischemic contracture in children with pulseless hand are scarce and often misinterpreted. The objective of our analysis was to assess the long-term outcomes of children with brachial artery injury associated with SC fracture.

Parsonage-Turner Syndrome after COVID-19 infection or vaccination is rare. Motor, sensory deficits and neuropathic pain may result from inflammation and compression around the brachial plexus. Early surgical intervention in patients with significant motor deficits may result in improved outcomes.
