Microsurgery

At SKM Hospital in Nepal, our Microsurgery Service represents the pinnacle of precision and innovation in At SKM Hospital in Nepal, our microsurgery service is a standout element of our plastic and reconstructive surgery offerings. We expertly address large wounds that lack covering tissue by employing “free flaps”—healthy tissue segments taken from other parts of the body and transplanted to close challenging defects. These intricate operations, which can extend over several hours, embody our commitment to advanced, precision-based care.

Enhancing this expertise, renowned visiting instructors such as Prof. Mischkowski and Prof. Bannasch regularly join our team. Their guidance in surgical planning, preparation, and the application of delicate techniques using the surgical microscope has been invaluable in refining the skills of our Nepalese doctors.

Our experienced microsurgery team specializes in repairing and reconnecting small blood vessels, nerves, and tissues with state-of-the-art operating microscopes and equipment. This expertise is crucial not only for reattaching severed limbs and salvaging injured tissues after trauma but also for reconstructing complex soft tissue defects, achieving both functional restoration and improved aesthetic outcomes.

Our surgeons have further advanced their skills through rigorous international training, including programs provided by experts from Interplast Germany e.V. This comprehensive training ensures that we remain at the forefront of innovative microsurgical techniques and patient care protocols.

In addition to our technical prowess, we emphasize detailed preoperative planning and dedicated postoperative rehabilitation. This multidisciplinary approach ensures that each patient receives personalized care throughout their recovery, maximizing surgical success and functional improvement.

SKM Hospital’s unwavering commitment to excellence in microsurgery enables us to deliver world-class reconstructive care, making a profound and lasting difference in the lives of patients facing complex surgical challenges..
