Abstract
Repair for the soft tissue defects of hand has been a major challenge of hand or reconstructive surgery. A lot of flaps are used, free or pedicle flap, but there are no comprehensive description of these flaps. In this article, we retrospectively reviewed the repair technique of the fingertip defect, palmar or dorsal defect of the hand, by using different flaps in 14 cases, between June 2010 and December 2014, and the advantages and limitation of each flap are simply stated. We have shown a lot of surgical pictures, with a small amount of text, providing a wide range of ideas for the surgeon to freely choose an easy and effective method for his own technology. Overall, these approaches are simple, safe, and effective for repairing the soft tissue defect of the hand.
