MeSH Heading: Vascularized Composite Allotransplantation
Tree Number(s): E04.936.450.825; E04.936.864.850
Unique ID: D063986
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D063986
Annotation: use for the surgical procedure; use VASCULARIZED COMPOSITE ALLOGRAFTS see COMPOSITE TISSUE ALLOGRAFTS for the graft itself
Scope Note: Transference of multiple tissues, such as muscle, bone, nerve, and skin, as a functional unit for reconstructive purposes. Blood supply to the transplanted tissues is maintained throughout the transplantation procedure with minimal ischemia. Maintenance of vascularity in the graft promotes its viability, function, and survival in the recipient.
Entry Term(s): Composite Tissue Allogeneic Transplantation; Composite Tissue Allografting; Composite Tissue Allotransplantation; Vascularized Composite Allografting
