Digital coverage with flaps from the same or neighboring digits.

Objective: Several flaps can be dissected from the same or neighboring digits for the reconstruction of relatively large soft tissue digital defects.

Material And Methods: In a 6-year period, 106 large soft tissue digital defects were reconstructed with the use of flaps in 101 patients. For the reconstruction of 75 fingertip defects 73 neurovascular, island or advancement flaps (42 homodigital, 18 heterodigital, 13 advancement) and 2 thenar flaps were used.
