Zhonghua Zheng Xing Wai Ke za Zhi = Zhonghua Zhengxing Waike Zazhi = Chinese Journal of Plastic Surgery 2005 September
OBJECTIVE: To present a new neurovascular island flap for fingertip reconstruction.
METHODS: Based on the transverse palmar branch of the digital artery, this flap was designed on the volar side of a digit and reversed to repair the fingertip defects.
RESULTS: 12 fingers in 11 patients were reconstructed using this flap. Of them, 11 flaps survived and one necrosed. The contour of the reconstructed fingers looked well.
CONCLUSION: This new neurovascular island flap provides excellent padding and sensation for fingertip reconstruction. The technique is simple.
