Reversed cross finger subcutaneous flap: A rapid way to cover finger defects

Indian Journal of Plastic Surgery, Volume 41, No. 1, Year 2008

Adequate coverage of dorsal finger wounds is often a challenge. The reversed cross finger subcutaneous flap to cover defects on the dorsum of phalanx constitutes an excellent option for coverage of wounds over the middle and distal phalanges of the index, middle, ring, and small fingers. It's an easy flap and represents our first choice to cover those defects.
