Cairo Plastic Clinic 

Various hand injuries occur in                                     everyday life, and Dr.
Wilson enjoys managing such problematic cases. The keyword for success is the urgent management, preferably within 6 hours of the trauma. In amputated fingers or hands, they should be put in a plastic bag and covered by ice in a clean container until Dr. Wilson does the reimplantation surgery.

During the surgery, Dr. Wilson spends time and effort in meticulously repairing every single severed structure. He fixes the bone, repairs every single tendon, nerve, and artery carefully to ensure that the function returns to almost normal. Some of these surgeries may take 12 hours or more! After the surgery, the patient starts early physiotherapy to restore function as soon as possible.
