Microarterial anastomosis with a distal tapering technique.

abstract：:This is the first report of an iatrogenic arteriovenous fistula complicating revascularization of an incomplete amputation of the hand, due to inadvertent anastomosis of the proximal radial artery to the distal cephalic vein. This resulted in a severely painful, massively swollen hand, which was initially diagnosed as...
