RESULTS

Traumatic defects and skin necrosis have been satisfactorily reconstructed with flaps up to 5x2.5 cm size based on the 1st and 2nd metacarpal arteries. The distal limit of reach is a DIP joint. All the flaps we used survive enterily. Donor site were closed primarily at the dorsum at the hand, but large flaps at the 1 st web required skin graft in order to avoid functional retraction. The mobility and the function of the fingers are good.(fig 8, fig 9,fig 10,fig11, fig 12).
