Clinical challenge in plastic & reconstructive surgery
CHALLENGE
Lymphovenous anastomosis
Supermicrosurgical techniques such as lymphovenous anastomosis have to face a common challenge: The visualization of lymphatic vessels on submillimeter level.
ZEISS is an integral part of my working life. Every day for about 8 to 10 hours we either see through a ZEISS Surgical Microscope or a ZEISS Medical Loupe. It has become an extension of our eyes. We choose ZEISS for its impeccable quality, reliability and efficiency. When I choose ZEISS, it is not just the microscope that I choose, I choose equipment which protects my valuable asset – my eyes.
