A Keendoc talk

Upper Extremity Flaps

Soft-tissue injuries to the upper extremity vary widely in nature and severity, and a range of treatment options exist to address each type. The complexity increases when the injury involves the loss of tendons, bone, blood vessels, or nerves. This talk aims to offer a systematic approach to managing soft-tissue issues in the upper extremity, while also providing a framework for addressing more complex, compound injuries. The discussion will be supported by numerous examples to illustrate key concepts.
