- * This study evaluates the outcomes of a new treatment method called "hybrid abdominal flap" (HAF) compared to traditional neurovascular flaps in fingertip amputation patients, analyzing their results three months post-surgery.
- * Results showed that patients who received HAFs had better range of motion and scar quality, and all flaps survived successfully, indicating that HAF could be a promising option for treating complex fingertip injuries.
