Summary

The dorsum of the finger is a reliable flap donor site in reconstructive hand surgery because of its similar quality to the original. The dorsal digital island flap can be used for repairing the defect of adjacent finger, but the limited length of the pedicle precludes its use for a more distal defect. The heterodigital neurocutaneous island flap of the dorsal branch of the digital nerve can be used as an alternative to resolve this problem.

Conditions

  • Sensory Reconstruction of the Volar Aspect of the Finger
  • The Heterodigital Neurocutaneous Island Flap

Interventions

DEVICE

the neurocutaneous island flap

The neurocutaneous island flap of the dorsal branch of the digital nerve can be used for repair the defects of the proximal and middle phalanxes of adjacent fingers.
