Abstract
Complete degloving injury of the digits not amenable to revascularization may leave poor cosmetic and functional results. We used innervated venous flaps from the dorsum of the foot in two patients with traumatic finger degloving injuries. All the flaps successfully provided coverage over the denuded fingers. Good sensation and nearly full rage of motion of the fingers were obtained. There were no donor-site problems. The advantages of this flap are preservation of a major artery of the donor site, easy elevation without deep dissection, and providing a thin, nonbulky tissue and good sensation. The innervated arterialized venous flap is a useful method that provides functional and cosmetic coverage to the severe avulsion injury of the finger.
