replantation
Severed part restoration
Replantation is a surgical procedure to reattach a body part that has been completely severed—typically a finger, hand, or limb.
The term distinguishes full reattachment from repair of incompletely severed parts.
Success depends on time elapsed and condition of the severed tissue: The surgical team attempted replantation of his thumb after the accident.
