Modified single pedicle reverse adipofascial flap for fingertip reconstruction
Background: Homodigital adipofascial flap is a well-established method for treating a distal fingertip defect; nonetheless, its use has some limitations. Reconstruction of fingertip injuries, with
radial or ulnar tissue loss, may lead to some difficulties in providing an adequate bone coverage.
The standard bipedicled technique did not allow the flap to cover the bone exposure without
excessive tension. In our series, the reverse adipofascial flap had a single pedicle. The modified
