Journal ArticleDOI
Soft-tissue injuries of the fingertip: methods of evaluation and treatment. An algorithmic approach.
TL;DR: The fingertip is the most commonly injured part of the hand, and therefore fingertip injuries are among the most frequent injuries that plastic surgeons are asked to treat.
Journal ArticleDOI
Repair and reconstruction of thumb and finger tip injuries: a global view.
TL;DR: In this review, an international group of senior hand surgeons was asked to provide their currently used methods, views, and advice on thumb and fingertip repair.

Step-advancement island flap for fingertip reconstruction.
David M. Evans,D.L. Martin +1 more
TL;DR: An island flap is described for fingertip reconstruction, based on one neurovascular bundle, which incorporates the stepladder principle, which ensures the provision of ample skin with full tactile sensibility in the required position without the risk of longitudinal volar scarring and with good nail support when necessary.

TL;DR: A new method for resurfacing the fingertip with smaller perforators (arterioles and venules) arising from the digital artery perforator flap is described, which seems to be less invasive, reliable, and technically easy for fingertip reconstructions.
Journal ArticleDOI
Homodigital neurovascular island flaps for digital pulp loss
TL;DR: Overall, homodigital neurovascular island flaps provide reliable vascularity as well as normal sensibility at the distal end of the finger where high quality perception is required.
