Summary

Multiple digital injuries are often complex and severe, and the commonly used local and regional flaps may not be feasible. The authors reconstruct soft tissue defects of the fingers using the dorsal digito-metacarpal flap and evaluate the efficacy of this technique.

Conditions

  • Finger Injuries
  • Soft Tissue Injuries

Interventions
