Abstrakt: Aim of the study is to report our preliminar experience with MCA Coupler System in mechanical microanastomoses performed in head and neck reconstructive surgery. During almost 7 months we performed 7 end-to-end venous anastomoses: 3 of them regarding the cephalic district. We had no vascular thrombosis, vascular congestion or flap loss. Mean time of execution of anastomosis with MCA Coupler System was 10 minutes. In our experence it is essential the choice of the appropriate size of the device and a good dissection of recipient vessels. In our opinion the Coupler System is an easy applicable device, and an efficient alternative to manual micro-anastomoses.
