Abstract
The hand is a complex part of the human body and plays an important role in our everyday lives. It is critical to preserve manual function when repairing surgical defects on the dorsum of the hand and digits. To demonstrate the effectiveness of the full-thickness skin graft (FTSG) in the repair of surgical defects on the dorsum of the hand and digits. Through a retrospective review of photographic and written records and person-to-person interviews, the authors evaluated 19 patients who underwent FTSG repair of 21 defects on the dorsum of the hand and digits after Mohs micrographic surgery. In all cases, the FTSG was durable, yielded good cosmetic results, and maintained normal function of the hand. The FTSG is a good option for repairing surgical defects on the dorsum of the hand and digits.
