Hand reconstruction surgery is a broad family of surgical procedures designed to repair or rebuild the damaged structures of the hand, wrist, and forearm — tendons, nerves, bones, joints, blood vessels, and skin. It is performed by plastic or orthopaedic surgeons with specialised hand surgery training, often using microsurgery (operating under a microscope) for delicate nerve and vessel repairs. Common reasons for hand reconstruction include traumatic injuries such as tendon or nerve cuts and complex fractures, burns and post-burn contractures, congenital hand differences in children, arthritis-related deformity, nerve injuries, and finger or thumb amputations requiring replantation. Depending on the extent of damage, reconstruction may be completed in a single operation or planned in stages over several months. Recovery involves a structured hand therapy programme that is as important as the surgery itself in achieving a good functional outcome.
