Abstract
- The microsurgical second toe wrap-around technique is an ideal treatment option for reconstruction of the distal half of the finger with circumferential loss of skin and nail associated with an uninjured proximal interphalangeal joint and an intact insertion of the flexor digitorum superficialis tendon. Follow-up of 13 flaps in 10 patients from 1986 to 1989 demonstrates rapid and adequate functional recovery as well as satisfactory aesthetic appearance in all patients.
