Abstract:
In this article, we present the experiences from Chinese microsurgeons on 5 less commonly used free vascularized flaps in hand reconstruction. In many units in China, these flaps have become the mainstays of treatment; they are routinely used for fingertip and thumb reconstruction. Their combined experience has demonstrated the reliability and versatility of these flaps for hand reconstruction, as well as their cosmetic value.
