title: [Salvage surgery for severely mutilated hand: report of 2 cases].
abstract: Immediate, one stage reconstruction is an optimal mode of treatment for severely mutilated hand. This might be feasible only with the use of tissues destined for amputation. Two cases are reported. The first patient had a thumb reconstruction with transfer of the index finger. The second one had metacarpal reconstruction with little finger structures. Both patients resumed previous occupation.
