[Special vascular anastomoses for microsurgery].
Various techniques for vessel anastomoses in microvascular surgery are described. Using modified techniques, safe vascular anastomoses can be achieved even in relatively inaccessible sites. Techniques to overcome problems caused by differing vessel diameters are also shown. End-to-end and end-to-side anastomoses using continuous sutures and single sutures are described. To simplify anastomoses of multiple vessels--for example in the case of a radial forearm flap or dorsalis pedis flap--techniques are described which allow larger anastomoses in simple end-to-end and end-to-side connections.
