Abstract

New approach to fingers reconstruction which provides the achievement of adequate functional outcome and minimum loss for donor sites is elaborated. The indications to this method are given. It is detected that the use of the blood-supplied segments of tubular bones enables to form the bone base of finger resistant to the resorption. It is also shown that in the forming of first interfinger interval is reasonable to use dermal-fatty flaps on temporary nutrition pedicles. The method of double flap formation for the prevention of necrosis is suggested.
