title: Toe-to-hand transfer based on the medial plantar artery.
abstract: Two patients had toe-to-hand transfers based on the medial plantar artery system. The dorsalis pedis and first dorsal metatarsal arteries were absent in both cases. Although the procedure is slightly more complicated than currently described techniques for toe-to-hand transfers based on the dorsal system, the procedure was performed in both cases without complication.
