Since 1965 The Micosurgical Transplantation Research Foundation has supported ground breaking research for the advancement of reconstructive surgery. By encouraging both research in microsugery and training of microsugeons, the foundation has directly and indirectly contributed to many advances in restorative medicine:

• Reimplantation of hands and fingers.
• Microsurgical transplants for recontruction after caner, trauma and congenital deficiencies.
• Reimplantation of amputated body parts.
• Reconstruction after nerve injury.
• Reconstruction of fingers shortened or absent due to birth defects.
• New and innovative reconstructive procedures.
