Digital reimplantation at the level of the distal interphalangeal joint and the distal phalanx: a good indication.
Ten reimplantations at the level of the distal interphalangeal joint (DIP) or the terminal phalanx were reviewed. The cosmetic results were excellent, the recuperation of sensibility was only partial, and the duration of work incapacity was about 10 weeks.
