Abstract

12 cases of finger transposition during replantation using microvascular techniques are reported, all of which were performed in the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Klinikum Rechts der Isar der Technischen Universität München (Head of Department: Prof. Dr. med. Ursula Schmidt-Tintemann). In multiple injuries of the hand, it is sometimes necessary to reconstruct fingers depending on their functional importance, when it is not possible to make a precise anatomical reconstruction owing to the destruction of the various amputated parts. The functional results following finger transposition are comparable to the results following 500 finger replantations in our hospital.

Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndromes

This feed focuses on a rare genetic condition called Autoimmune Polyendocrine Syndromes, which are characterized by autoantibodies against multiple endocrine organs. This can lead to Type I Diabetes.

Autoimmune Polyendocrinopathies

Autoimmune polyendocrinopathies, also called polyglandular autoimmune syndromes (PGASs), or polyendocrine autoimmune syndromes(PASs), are a heterogeneous group of rare diseases characterized by autoimmune activity against more than one endocrine organ, although non-endocrine organs can be affected.
