Video Transcription

Video Summary

The video discusses vascularized bone grafting and the different options available. It begins with background information on the science behind it, stating that placing a vessel into the bone causes neovascularization. Several specific grafts are then described, including the 1,2-intercompartmental supraretinacular graft, the 2,3-intercompartmental supraretinacular graft, the capsular-based graft, the index dorsal metacarpal artery graft, the volar carpal artery graft, and the pronator graft. The video also mentions a thumb metacarpal graft and the use of free grafts from the iliac crest and supracondylar femur. The video concludes with images of vascularized grafts and their implantation. No credits are mentioned in the transcript.
