The tongue has important roles in deglutition, speech, airway protection, taste, and sexual function, and its amputation is very serious. Using supermicrosurgical techniques, we replanted successfully a patient's tongue, the distal part of which had been amputated by the bite of another person, through the anastomosis of a blood vessel that was only 0.7-0.8mm. The result was that the state of the replanted tongue was relatively good both functionally and aesthetically, and the patient was very satisfied.
舌头在吞咽、言语、气道保护、味觉和性功能方面发挥着重要作用,因此其离断是非常严重的情况。我们运用超显微外科技术,成功为一名舌头远端被他人咬伤离断的患者进行了再植手术,吻合的血管直径仅为0.7 - 0.8毫米。结果显示,再植舌在功能和外形方面恢复情况相对良好,患者对此非常满意。
