An automatic milking apparatus composed of a finger attachment and a pump to push out the air was devised in order to perform the forced drainage from replanted digits with insufficient venous drainage. Seven replanted digits with insufficient venous drainage after replantation were applied, and remarkable improvement was found in five digits. An interesting case is reported in which a replanted digit without venous anastomosis survived as a consequence of applying the milking apparatus. The advantages of our milking apparatus are also discussed.
为了对静脉回流不足的再植手指进行强制引流，设计了一种由指状附件和用于排出空气的泵组成的自动挤奶装置。应用了7例再植后静脉回流不足的再植手指，其中5例有明显改善。报道了1例有趣的病例，即应用挤奶装置后，未进行静脉吻合的再植手指存活。还讨论了我们的挤奶装置的优点。
