[Local rotational flap of the nail].
An original pattern of nail flap is described. It consists of a longitudinal band of lateral nail matrix and bed associated with its lateral wall. A vascular anatomic study with latex neopren infusion has been performed. The dorsal branch of the medial phalangeal artery could be shown to be the arterial pedicle of the flap. The venous system was shown to be concomitant. Eight nail autoplasties have been performed in eight cases, proving the reliability of the flap. It provides an interesting way of reconstruction of the nail in tumors, black longitudinal nail bands, posttraumatic and also post-infectious lesions of the nail.
