Abstract:
Objective To explore the clinical outcome of using modified great toe wrap-around flap to reconstruct degloved thumb and fingers.Methods Eighteen patients were involved.Based on different types of injury,four procedures were carried on for reconstructing degloved thumb and fingers:①Unilateral modified great toe wrap-around flap to reconstruct 9 degloved thumbs of distal proximal level and 3 degloved fingers of proximal interphalangeal joint level.②Unilateral modified great toe wrap-around flap with second toe medial flap to reconstruct 2 total degloved fingers.③Bilateral modified great toe wrap-around flap to reconstruct 2 thumbs.④Bilateral modified great toe wrap-around flap and second toe medial flap with neurolized super thin anterolateral thigh flap to reconstruct 12 degloved fingers.This wrap-around flap carried with entire nail.A triangle flap was reserved at medial plantar of great toe.Results All free flaps were survived in one stage.Fifteen patients were followed up for 8 to 25 months.The contour of reconstructed digit was as same as contralateral digit with satisfactory motion arc and sensation.There was no extensive scar in donor toe.The width of medial plantar triangle flap increased significantly.All patients could walking,running,jumping without restricted.Conclusions With reconstructed by modified great toe wrap-around flap,degloved thumb or finger can be promised with excellent contour and function outcome.In the meantime,the loss of donor foot can be expected to minimal.This procedure is one of the best ways for reconstructing degloved thumb and finger.
