Popis: |
Seven patients who presented with complicated acute finger injuries were treated successfully with local transpositional adipofascial flaps. This is a one-stage procedure with advantages of simplicity and rapidity. This flap is thin with good pliability and provides a very versatile and reliable covering for soft-tissue defects of the fingers. Full-thickness skin grafts were applied to the raw surface of the adipofascial flaps in all patients. All cases had excellent wound healing and restored full range of motion. This procedure facilitates early wound healing and early range of motion for finger joints; it also reduces wound pain, minimizes scar formation, and eliminates the need for second-stage surgery. |
