Quality of life and reconstructive surgery efforts in severe hand injuries

Quality of life and reconstructive surgery efforts in severe hand injuries

Severe hand trauma, leading to extensive skeletal and tissue defects, requires plastic surgical reconstruction of the highest level aiming at maximizing function and aesthetics. The intention of this study was to investigate clinical parameters and resource consumption connected with severe hand inj...
