Osteo-Cutaneous Reconstruction of the Thumb by Radial Composite Flap
Lubov A. Rodomanova
Abstract:Background. One of the possible ways of the thumb reconstruction when it is lost at the level of the middle third of the ray is osteo-cutaneous reconstruction, which today is carried out by transplantation of the blood-supplied composite tissue complex, which allows for reconstruction of the lost thumb without the risk of the bone graft resorption.
The aim — to evaluate the effectiveness of osteo-cutaneous reconstruction of the thumb using a blood-supplied tissue complex based on the radial artery. The s… Show more
