Conditions such as lacerations, crush injuries, avulsions, and fractures may require urgent surgical intervention because they can lead to loss of function.<\/p>\n<p>Accurate evaluation in emergency hand injuries is vital. Nerve, tendon, vascular, and bone structures should be examined one by one; after bleeding control is achieved, intervention should be planned according to the degree of damage. Delayed treatment may cause permanent injury.<\/p>\n<p>In traumatic amputations and severe tissue loss, replantation or reconstruction procedures can be performed with microsurgery. Especially in cases such as finger amputations, successful surgery performed within hours can restore the function of the limb.<\/p>\n<p>The rehabilitation process after emergency hand surgery plays a critical role in functional recovery. The hand\u2019s strength and range of motion are supported with splint use, physical therapy, and motor skill exercises. Early intervention and the right surgical approach increase long-term success.<\/p>\n<table>\n<tbody>\n<tr>\n<td>Things You Should Know<\/td>\n<td>Information<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Definition<\/td>\n<td>Trauma and emergency hand surgery is the urgent evaluation and treatment of tissue, tendon, nerve, vascular, and bone injuries of the hand and fingers that develop after cutting, piercing, crushing, burn, or high-energy traumas.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Common Injuries<\/td>\n<td>Finger and hand lacerations, tendon and nerve ruptures, vascular injuries, amputation (finger or hand), fractures, dislocations, crush injuries, high-pressure injection injuries.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Affected Structures<\/td>\n<td>Skin, muscle, tendons (flexor and extensor), nerves (median, ulnar, radial), vessels (artery\/vein), bone, joint capsule.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Criteria for Emergency Intervention<\/td>\n<td>Active bleeding, nerve paralysis, circulatory impairment, full-thickness laceration, amputation, infected wounds, open fractures, and loss of function.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Types of Trauma<\/td>\n<td>Cutting-piercing wounds (knife, glass), crush traumas, industrial accidents, entrapment in machinery, burns and electric shock.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Evaluation Steps<\/td>\n<td>1) Assessment of vital signs (ATLS approach), 2) Circulatory, motor, and sensory examination of the injured hand, 3) Tetanus prophylaxis and imaging (X-ray, MRI\/ultrasound if necessary).<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Types of Surgical Intervention<\/td>\n<td>Tendon repairs, nerve repairs, vascular repair, fracture fixation (plate\/screw\/pin), microsurgical replantation after amputation, skin graft\/flap surgery.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Need for Microsurgery<\/td>\n<td>Microsurgical technique is mandatory in finger or hand replantations and in vascular and nerve repairs.<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<tr>\n<td>Timing<\/td>\n<td>The ideal repair time for nerve and tendon injuries is within the first 72 hours.
