-=====Secondary procedures following digital replantation and revascularisation===== 
  
-====Abstract==== 
-In this retrospective study, 79 digits of 55 patients received 102 secondary procedures following replantation. We divided the procedures into two groups, occurring before or after 2 months following replantation. The procedures in the early group were mainly for soft tissue coverage (92%), and those in that late group were mainly for tendon (67%) to improve function. Factors associated with higher incidence of early secondary procedures included multiple-finger injury, avulsion or degloving injury and level of injury proximal to zone III in finger replantation ðp , 0:05Þ: However, younger patients and those with proximal level replantation in fingers had more late secondary procedures ðp , 0:05Þ: Flexor tenolysis procedure significantly improved the digital function after replantation ðp , 0:05Þ: q 2003

-====Commentary==== 
-===Definition of secondary procedures=== 
-  * describes exploration and revision of vascular anastomosis as secondary procedures 
- 
-===Classification=== 
-  * Early < 2 months -- mainly soft tissue coverage 
-  * Late > 2 months -- tendon 
- 
-===Numbers === 
-  * 79 digits, 55 patients, 102 secondary procedures 
-  * 32% had secondary procedures; range from 1-4 procedures: 1:22, 2: 21, 3: 10, 4: 2 
- 
-===When to do tenolysis after replantation?=== 
-  * Yu advocates are 6 months 
-  * quotes Jupiter 4-6 months 
- 
-===Results of tenolysis after replantation=== 
-  * Tamai score improve 67-84 
-  * no worse 
-  * no digit loss
