Abstract
In traumatic forearm amputation, if replantation is not indicated or possible, then adequate forearm length preservation is desirable to allow use of a below-elbow prosthesis. A case is presented in which forearm replantation was not done, but forearm length was preserved by use of a palmar skin free microvascular flap.Entities:
