Surgical planning for congenital hand malformations requires individualization. This article details reliable local flaps for improving hand function and aesthetics in affected children, considering growth factors.

Area of Science:

  • Plastic Surgery
  • Pediatric Orthopedics
  • Hand Surgery

Background:

  • Congenital hand malformations present unique challenges in pediatric patients.
  • Surgical intervention aims to improve both hand function and aesthetic outcomes.
  • Not all affected children are candidates for surgical correction, necessitating careful evaluation.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To present a curated selection of dependable local flaps for surgical correction of congenital hand malformations.
  • To emphasize the importance of individualized surgical planning in these cases.
  • To guide surgeons in selecting appropriate flaps for improved functional and aesthetic results.

Main Methods:

  • Review and compilation of established and reliable local flap techniques.
