Two new indications for the use of the first dorsal metacarpal artery (1st DMA) in reconstruction following severe hand injury are reported. In the first case, a primary pollicization of the index finger was based solely on the dorsal arterial network. The second case involves a microvascular arterial revascularisation of a 1st dorsal metacarpal artery island flap. Neither procedure has previously been described.
