In order to be eligible to participate in this study, a subject must meet all
of the following criteria:
- 18 years of age or older
- Traumatic amputation of one or more digits;
- Dutch resident (due to follow-up);
- Time from trauma to presentation is less than 6 hours;
- Amputated finger is feasible for replantation;
- Patient request replantation over *simple* wound repair with revision
amputation.
A potential subject who meets any of the following criteria will be excluded
from participation in this study:
- Additional significant trauma that dictates other treatment priorities
- Patient is not able to understand the study and consent for the operation
- Current substance abuse;
- Inability to replant the digit for any reason;

- Primary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>The primary objective is to study the applicability of robotic-assisted<br /><br>microsurgery in replantation of amputated digits due to trauma. The primary<br /><br>outcome will be the quality of the anastomoses using Structured Assessment of<br /><br>Microsurgery Skills (SAMS). </p><br>
- Secondary Outcome Measures
Name Time Method <p>To provide important surgical and technical information, and to collect patient<br /><br>and surgeon satisfaction, the following secondary outcome measures are gathered:<br /><br>- Survival of the replanted digits;<br /><br>- Duration of surgery;<br /><br>- Adverse events, complications and robotic errors peri-operatively;<br /><br>- Post-operative complications and adverse events;<br /><br>- Surgeon*s satisfaction with the technique applied;<br /><br>- Patient*s satisfaction with the surgery procedure;<br /><br>- Function of the hand over time. </p><br>
