Abstract

The results of 40 tissue autotransplantations for correction of function of the replanted upper extremities. The peculiar features of vascularised tissue autotransplantation in specific situations of anatomic and morphologic changes in replanted upper extremities are presented. It was proved, that vascularised tissue autotransplantation is a safe and effective method for restoration of function of the extremities, replanted after traumatic amputation, that was accompanied with massive tissue damages. Microsurgical autotransplantation expands the indications in replantation surgery and makes it possible to perform replantation in cases, when function restoration was considered nonprospective.

Allogenic & Autologous Therapies

Allogenic therapies are generated in large batches from unrelated donor tissues such as bone marrow. In contrast, autologous therapies are manufactures as a single lot from the patient being treated. Here is the latest research on allogenic and autologous therapies.
