- Abstract: In January 2023, a patient with soft tissue degloving defect of right index, middle, ring and little fingers was treated in the Department of Hand Surgery, Suzhou Ruihua Orthopaedic Hospital. Seven free flaps from a leg were harvested to reconstruct the defected wound of fingers in primary surgery. Flap thinning and plastic surgery were performed in stage-II surgery. Over the 22 months of postoperative follow-up, the flaps in right index, middle, ring and little fingers survived well with the colour and texture close to proximal skin. There was no obvious swelling of the flaps and sensation of the flaps recovered to S 3. The donor sites healed well and the donor leg walked normally.
