Abstrakt:	The aim of this study is to assess the functional, emotional, and social adaptation of pediatric patients submitted to a hand ray resection to treat a traumatic hand injury. Retrospective study of pediatric patients undergoing hand ray resection, in the period 2013-2022, performed in two hospital institutions. Inclusion criteria: age less than 18 years, primary/secondary resection due to traumatic etiology and follow-up time of more than 1 year. Data concerning demographic information, lesion location, traumatic mechanism and surgical description were collected. Functional outcomes (QuickDASH Score), social and emotional integration (PEDSQL) and satisfaction were evaluated. Seven patients were included, with male predominance (n = 4) and the right side was the most affected (n = 5). Median age at the time of surgery was 10 years (2-15). Primary ray resection, without previous revascularization, was performed in three patients. Secondary ray resection was performed in four patients. Three patients with an unsuccessful revascularization procedure attempt another patient with a sequela with severe deformity. All patients presented a good adaptation to daily living activities, with good pinch and grip function. The median follow-up was 4 years (min:1; max:9). The scores were collected on six out of seven patients. Median QuickDASH score of 14 (min:11; max:22), and PEDSQL[physical] of 95.31 (min:78.13; max:100) and PEDSQL[social] of 93.47 (min:66.3; max:100). Hand ray resection is a rare procedure in pediatric age and usually difficult for patients and parents to accept. However, it is a useful and safe technique that allows for an improvement in overall hand function and psychosocial readaptation in specific and selected cases. Level of evidence: Level of evidence IV - case series. (Copyright © 2024 Wolters Kluwer Health, Inc. All rights reserved.)
