Abstract
Objectives
To explore the clinical application and efficacy of transplantation of free composite flaps supplied by radial osteocutaneous branch of the dorsal branch of the anterior interosseous artery for reconstructing bone and skin defects in the hand.
Material and methods
Anatomically, the radial osteocutaneous branch of the dorsal branch of the anterior interosseous artery has constant collateral anastomoses which can provide a large dorsoradial flap from the dorsum of the forearm. This flap was used for reconstruction in five cases of cutaneous and phalangeal defects.
Results
Reconstruction was successful in all five cases, with consolidated phalanx and good cosmetic results. All donor sites could be closed directly.
Conclusion
Reconstruction with dorsoradial forearm flaps is a reliable procedure which causes minimal trauma. Thus, it is an ideal approach for repairing cutaneous and phalangeal defects.
期刊介绍:
As the official publication of the French, Belgian and Swiss Societies for Surgery of the Hand, as well as of the French Society of Rehabilitation of the Hand & Upper Limb, ''Hand Surgery and Rehabilitation'' - formerly named "Chirurgie de la Main" - publishes original articles, literature reviews, technical notes, and clinical cases. It is indexed in the main international databases (including Medline). Initially a platform for French-speaking hand surgeons, the journal will now publish its articles in English to disseminate its author''s scientific findings more widely. The journal also includes a biannual supplement in French, the monograph of the French Society for Surgery of the Hand, where comprehensive reviews in the fields of hand, peripheral nerve and upper limb surgery are presented.
Organe officiel de la Société française de chirurgie de la main, de la Société française de Rééducation de la main (SFRM-GEMMSOR), de la Société suisse de chirurgie de la main et du Belgian Hand Group, indexée dans les grandes bases de données internationales (Medline, Embase, Pascal, Scopus), Hand Surgery and Rehabilitation - anciennement titrée Chirurgie de la main - publie des articles originaux, des revues de la littérature, des notes techniques, des cas clinique. Initialement plateforme d''expression francophone de la spécialité, la revue s''oriente désormais vers l''anglais pour devenir une référence scientifique et de formation de la spécialité en France et en Europe. Avec 6 publications en anglais par an, la revue comprend également un supplément biannuel, la monographie du GEM, où sont présentées en français, des mises au point complètes dans les domaines de la chirurgie de la main, des nerfs périphériques et du membre supérieur.
