A history of vascular and microvascular surgery

Rory F Rickard et al. Ann Plast Surg. 2014 Oct.

Abstract

The history of microvascular surgery is intimately linked to that of vascular surgery. Microvascular techniques, developed mainly in China, Japan, Australia, and the United States of America, built on the principles of vascular anastomosis established by pioneers in France, Germany, Italy, and the United States of America. We present a history of the technique here.
