Hand Flaps
WELCOME
Dear Colleagues,
Finger injuries are among the most frequent soft tissue problem in every emergency department. In the last decades a great number of papers has been published describing new flaps, technical refinements or wider indications for classical flaps.
With our course we will try to give a systematic overview of this specific field: nomenclature, clear technical details and indications with a rational approach.
The collaboration with the Institute of Anatomy will allow us to dissect flaps on very good latex injected and formaline free specimens. Two to three participants will be guided by the faculty's members in order to bring home new practical knowledge for the daily clinical work
This year one more day dedicated to flexor tendon repair has been added to the course.
In this day the classical technique with the new trends will be presented as well as the newest advancements in suture material. The participants will be able to perform different tendon suture techniques on the specimens and to test several different suture materials
