Abstract:
Objective To investigate the clinical effect of the treatment for hand trauma with free flap of radial artery superficial palmar branch.Methods Selected 100 cases of patients with hand trauma who were treated in our hospital from January 2013 to December 2015.All the patients were treated with free flap of radial artery superficial palmar branch.The postoperative necrosis rate,survival rate,and infection rate of flap of all the patients were observed.All the patients were followed up for 6 months,and the healing of fracture were evaluated by X-ray examination so as to evaluate the hand function recovery.Results After the treatment,there were 9 cases of flap local necrosis and 10 cases of local infection,and the necrosis rate and infection rate were 9% and 10% respectively.The infection was controlled effectively after the symptomatic treatment and the flaps all survived.The swelling degree of skin flap was slight and the appearance was good.After 6 months of follow-up, the 100 cases all get epithelization completely.The X-ray examination showed that the fracture healing is good,with 7 cases of hook nail deformity and 5 cases of slow nail regeneration.The hand function recovery was excellent in 73 cases (73%),good in 16 cases (16%),and medium in 10 cases (10%).Conclusion It is an effective treatment for hand trauma with free flap of radial artery superficial palmar branch,as it can receive high flap survival rate and good recovery of hand function.
