Abstract

We studied the national trends of upper extremity replantation and revascularization operations in 2434 patients who had sustained an upper extremity injury from the national database in Finland. The operation rate was higher between the months of April and September, and overall, lower on Sundays and Mondays.

Keywords: Incidence; rate; replantation; revascularization.
