Quick Facts
What is Trauma Surgery?
The hand consists of 27 bones and hundreds of nerves, arteries, veins, muscles, tendons and joints. This intricate design and function mean that any injury, especially trauma injuries, to the underlying structure could lead to a potentially devastating handicap. Dr Maresky specializes in emergency hand trauma surgery, providing immediate and comprehensive care to restore function and minimize long-term disability.
The Procedure
Due to the range of potential injuries to the hand, a trauma surgery could require anything from a few simple stitches to a complete skin graft or microsurgical reconstruction. During the initial assessment, the surgeon will evaluate the extent of damage to bones, tendons, nerves, blood vessels, and soft tissues. Treatment may involve fracture fixation, tendon repair, nerve grafting, vascular reconstruction, or complex tissue reconstruction using advanced microsurgical techniques.
Expected Results
With proper surgical intervention and rehabilitation, most patients can expect significant improvement in hand function and appearance. The goal is to restore maximum function while minimizing pain and disability. Early intervention and appropriate surgical technique are key to achieving the best possible outcomes.
