Transfer-Root Operation X​

Transfer is defined as moving, without taking out, all or a portion of a body part to another location to take over the function of all or a portion of a body part. During a transfer procedure the body part is moved to another location without disrupting its vascular and nervous supply. Therefore the body part transferred remains connected to its vascular and nervous supply.

Examples of transfer procedures include skin pedicle flap transfer, skin transfer flap, tendon transfer, TRAM pedicle flap reconstruction, and nerve transfer.
