I am currently working for the National Center for Child Health and Development as a pediatric hand surgeon, focusing on congenital anomalies of the extremities, pediatric fractures, and deformities. I had the opportunity to talk about the episodes that have had a strong impact on me so far under the theme of the symposium at the 49th annual meeting of the Japanese Society for Reconstructive Microsurgery (December 1-2, 2022, Hamamatsu) . In order to learn microsurgery, I studied at Ogori Daiichi General Hospital and then abroad at Christine M. Kleinert Institute for Hand and Microsurgery (Kleinert Kutz Hand Care Center, Louisville, KY, USA) . I would like to look back on what I have done so far and talk about the present and future.
