Abstract
Suture techniques for microvascular anastomoses have been clinically adopted for decades. However, there are still some limitations in microvascular anastomosis. Therefore, the improvement of suture techniques for microvascular anastomosis has become the focused topics in the research of microsurgery. With the development of science and technology in microsurgery, the suture techniques, anastomotic instruments and training models for microvascular anastomoses have been continuously improved. This article summarises the progress in microvascular anastomosis based on literatures published on PubMed, Embase, Medline, CNKI and Wanfang Data, and provides a theoretical basis for promoting the development in anastomosis of microvessels.
