Crush injuries occur when a part of the body is subjected to a significant force or pressure, often resulting in damage to the underlying tissues, blood vessels, nerves, and bones. These injuries can range from mild to severe and may lead to various complications depending on the extent of tissue damage and the body part involved. Crush injuries typically occur when a body part gets caught between two heavy objects, such as machinery, vehicles, or heavy equipment. The force exerted on the body part can cause compression, leading to tissue damage, swelling, and impaired blood flow. Crush injuries can affect different tissues in the body, including muscles, bones, blood vessels, nerves, and skin.
Microvascular surgery is a specialized surgical technique used to repair or reconstruct small blood vessels, typically measuring less than 3 millimeters in diameter. These procedures involve intricate and delicate maneuvers performed under magnification using specialized instruments, microscopes, and fine sutures. Microvascular surgery is commonly used in reconstructive procedures to restore blood flow to injured or damaged tissues, transfer tissue flaps with their blood supply to reconstruct defects, and reattach amputated body parts such as fingers, hands, or limbs. It is also used in certain plastic and cosmetic surgeries to enhance or restore blood circulation to tissues. The surgical plan is tailored to the individual patient's needs, taking into account factors such as the location and extent of the injury or defect.
