Abstract
In hand trauma, the uninjured forearm has been touted as the ideal site for ectopic banking in digit/hand amputations. Here, we describe the temporary ectopic implantation and subsequent replantation of a partially amputated hand and highlight the "Three R's" - Recovery, Rehabilitation, and Revision over the first year of recovery.
