ABSTRACT

A modification of standard microvascular anastomosis procedure is presented, which helps in training and improves clinical technique by conservation of motion. The speed of anastomosis is at least as rapid as the posterior wall technique on which it is based, and it has the advantage of having fewer unused penetrations of the vessel wall and better eversion of the edges.
