Overcoming soft-tissue deficiency in toe-to-hand transfer using a dorsalis pedis fasciosubcutaneous toe free flap: Surgical technique

Reconstruction of combined finger and soft-tissue defects poses a technical surgical challenge. We present our experience with a hybrid flap: the dorsalis pedis fasciosubcutaneous-toe free flap. In a single stage, this flap solves the problem of medium-sized defects associated with digit losses in the hand. Donor-site morbidity has been minimal.
