Abstract

Purpose: The reconstruction of Allen's type IV fingertip amputation is a clinical challenge. Our team designed bilateral unequal-sized hallux osteo-onychocutaneous free flaps for the long-term reconstruction of Allen's type IV fingertip amputation and conducted a retrospective study with a 5-year follow-up aims to evaluate the effects of this technique.

Methods: A retrospective analysis with a 5-year follow-up including 13 patients with Allen's type IV fingertip amputation who were admitted to our hospital from January 2010 to January 2017 was conducted. The patients were treated with bilateral unequal-sized hallux osteo-onychocutaneous free flaps. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and complications were recorded, and the survival rate of the transplanted flaps was calculated. During the 5-year follow-up after operation, the nail growth time was recorded and the finger appearance was observed. At the last follow-up appointment, the length, width, and girth of the reconstructed fingertip and contralateral normal fingertip, range of motion of the reconstructed fingertip and contralateral normal fingertip, Semmes-Weinstein test (for the evaluation of tactile sensation), and two-point discrimination testing results were recorded. SPSS 22.0 software was used for the statistical analysis and the data are presented as mean ± SD.

Results: The mean operation time was (5.62 ± 0.51) h, the mean intraoperative blood loss was (34.15 ± 3.13) mL, and the survival rate of the transplanted flaps was 100%. During the 5-year follow-up, the average nail growth time was (10.14 ± 1.98) months and the average bone union time was (3.78 ± 0.91) months. The length, width, and girth of the reconstructed fingertip were (31.52 ± 3.73) mm, (17.82 ± 1.74) mm, and (59.75 ± 3.04) mm, respectively, which did not differ from those of the contralateral normal fingertip. The range of motion of the reconstructed fingertip was (12.15 ± 2.79) degrees which is different from that of the contralateral normal fingertip. The average tactile sensation evaluated via the Semmes-Weinstein test and the average two-point discrimination test of the reconstructed fingertip were (0.39 ± 0.17) g and (7.46 ± 1.14) mm, respectively, which were not different from those of the contralateral normal fingertip. The average Maryland score of feet in the donor area was 87.66 ± 7.39, which was satisfactory.

Conclusion: Bilateral unequal-sized hallux osteo-onychocutaneous free flaps are an effective method to reconstruct Allen's type IV fingertip amputations with a satisfactory appearance and good sensory function.

通过双侧大小不等的同侧骨巩膜游离皮瓣重建艾伦第 IV 型指尖截肢:一项为期五年的回顾性研究。
目的:AllenⅣ型指尖截肢的重建是一项临床挑战。我们的团队设计了双侧不等大的同侧骨-腱-皮游离瓣,用于Allen's IV型指尖截肢的长期重建,并进行了一项为期5年的回顾性研究,旨在评估该技术的效果:方法:对我院2010年1月至2017年1月收治的13例Allen's IV型指尖截肢患者进行了为期5年的回顾性分析。这些患者均接受了双侧不等大的指骨骨膜游离皮瓣治疗。记录了手术时间、术中失血量和并发症,并计算了移植皮瓣的存活率。术后 5 年随访期间,记录指甲生长时间并观察手指外观。最后一次复诊时,记录了再造指尖和对侧正常指尖的长度、宽度和周长,再造指尖和对侧正常指尖的活动范围,Semmes-Weinstein 测试(用于评估触觉)和两点辨别测试结果。统计分析采用 SPSS 22.0 软件,数据以均数±标准差表示:平均手术时间为(5.62±0.51)小时,术中平均失血量为(34.15±3.13)毫升,移植皮瓣的存活率为 100%。5 年随访期间,平均指甲生长时间为(10.14 ± 1.98)个月,平均骨结合时间为(3.78 ± 0.91)个月。再造指尖的长度、宽度和周长分别为(31.52±3.73)毫米、(17.82±1.74)毫米和(59.75±3.04)毫米,与对侧正常指尖相比没有差异。重建指尖的活动范围为(12.15 ± 2.79)度,与对侧正常指尖的活动范围不同。通过 Semmes-Weinstein 测试和两点辨别测试评估的重建指尖的平均触觉分别为(0.39 ± 0.17)克和(7.46 ± 1.14)毫米,与对侧正常指尖相比没有差异。供区足的平均马里兰评分为(87.66±7.39)分,结果令人满意:结论:双侧不等大同侧骨髁皮游离瓣是重建Allen's IV型指尖截肢的有效方法,其外观令人满意,且感觉功能良好。
