Abstract
Although temporary intravascular shunting has been reported to assist with hand revascularization and replantation after traumatic amputation, most reports have described using ipsilateral upper limb inflow. We present a case of a traumatic hand amputation in a patient who had presented with 4 to 5 hours of warm ischemic time. Because the replantation team believed that extra-anatomic revascularization would be necessary, we performed a novel type of temporary intravascular shunting by connecting two arterial sheaths placed in the ulnar and superficial femoral arteries. This permitted the hand to be successfully replanted away from the inflow source and resulted in a good long-term functional outcome.

Effect of transient ulnar artery compression on radial artery diameter. Exp Ther Med 2018; 16:3735-3739.

Abstract
The transradial approach is widely preferred in coronary procedures. A small radial artery diameter (RAD) is the most important factor affecting successful access. Various maneuvers and medications have been used to increase the RAD and thereby facilitate RA cannulation. Ulnar artery compression (UAC) for 30 min has been indicated to be effective in increasing the RAD and facilitating RA access. The aim of the present preliminary study was to assess the effect of transient UAC for 1 min on the RAD. A total of 151 patients were included in the present study. RA ultrasonography was performed at the level of the wrist. The UA was compressed for 1 min. The RAD was measured at baseline, at the end of UAC and at 1 min thereafter. The results indicated that the RAD was significantly smaller in diabetic vs. non-diabetic patients (2.35±0.43 vs. 2.50±0.39 mm, P=0.024) and in women vs. men (2.25±0.38 vs. 2.56±0.38 mm, P<0.001). At the end of UAC, the RAD was increased compared with that at baseline (2.45±0.41 vs. 2.62±0.41 mm, P<0.001), but it started to decrease thereafter, and the RAD measured at 1 min after stopping UAC was significantly smaller (2.62±0.41 vs. 2.55±0.40 mm, P<0.001), while remaining significantly larger than that at baseline (P<0.001). The RA peak systolic flow velocity also increased significantly during UAC (35.3±8.9 vs. 60.3±19.2 cm/sec; P<0.001). In conclusion, Transient UAC for 1 min significantly increased the RAD and the peak systolic flow velocity. Further studies with clinical endpoints are required for further exploration of the feasibility of this approach.
