​Reconstructive Microvascular Surgery Programme​

Reconstructive microvascular surgery is a specialised type of surgery that focuses on restoring form and function to parts of the body affected by trauma, disease, or congenital anomalies. It involves intricate procedures where tiny blood vessels, nerves, and tissues are delicately reconnected using advanced surgical techniques. The AKUH Reconstructive Microvascular Surgery Programme offers advanced surgical care for a wide range of conditions affecting the face, body, and extremities.

Conditions We Treat

Our programme is dedicated to restoring function and appearance after:

  • Traumatic injuries: Microvascular surgery can reattach severed limbs, fingers, toes, and facial structures, as well as address complex wounds and scars.
  • Reconstructive surgery: Reconstructive surgery can rebuild tissues removed during cancer treatment, like breast reconstruction.
  • Birth defects: Microvascular surgery can address congenital anomalies of the hand and face.

Our Services

The AKUH Reconstructive Microvascular Surgery Programme offers a variety of treatment options, including:

  • Microsurgical tissue transfer: Our surgeons meticulously transfer healthy tissue from one part of the body to reconstruct another, restoring both function and aesthetics.
  • Free flap surgery: This advanced technique involves transplanting a piece of tissue with its own blood supply to a new location.
  • Minimally invasive surgery: Whenever possible, we utilise minimally invasive techniques to minimise scarring and improve recovery times.
