Abstract:
Arterial reconstructions in the upper extremity are reported less frequently than those in the lower extremity. In most cases, the operative indications are to save the hand that has severe ischemia. The authors present a case of radial artery reconstruction performed for hand claudication that was disturbing the patient's work as a carpenter. By using the nondissection method, the anastomotic procedure of the small artery was easily performed. The successful result highlights a flexible determination of operative indication for the arterial reconstruction in the upper extremity.
