Sequential flap transplantations for total reconstruction of avulsion amputation of the fingers--a case report.
The degloved and partially amputated ring and middle fingers of the left hand of a 40-year-old male was re-surfaced with two flaps transplanted sequentially: the toe wrap-around flap and the reversed pedicled metacarpal flap. Sensate and non-glabous skin was restored to the tip of the finger stumps as well as a supple full thickness reconstruction of the web space was achieved.
