Microvascular Replantation by Dr. Vicky Jain · Plastic & Reconstructive Surgeon
A traumatic amputation is a frightening emergency — and often, with rapid microsurgery, the part can be reattached. Dr. Vicky Jain performs replantation to restore as much movement, feeling, and function as possible.
Replantation is a surgical procedure where a finger, hand, or even part of the lower limb that has been accidentally cut off (amputated) is carefully reattached to the body. This involves reconnecting bones, blood vessels, nerves, muscles, and skin under a microscope to restore as much movement and function as possible.
Dr. Vicky Jain's approach to replantation is centered on rapid assessment and precise microsurgery to reconnect structures and maximize functional recovery. Post-surgery, structured rehabilitation and close follow-up are critical parts of care.
Recovery is gradual and may take several months to a year. Initial healing often takes 4 to 6 weeks, while nerve regeneration, joint mobility, and strength recovery continue for longer with intensive therapy.

After my accident, Dr. Jain gave me my life back—unmatched skill and compassion.
Took time to listen; I left informed and confident. Excellent consultation.
Replantation can be considered at any age if the amputated part and patient condition are suitable.
Wrap the amputated part in clean moist cloth, place in a plastic bag, keep the bag on ice, and seek emergency care immediately.
Basic blood tests, viral markers, and X-rays are commonly required; vascular imaging may also be needed.
Children often recover faster, but recovery in all age groups requires prolonged therapy and follow-up.
