Abstract:
Arterialized venous flaps can be an excellent option for reconstruction of digital defects. Previously, they remained unpopular owing to the high rate of venous congestion. Different techniques of restriction of the arteriovenous shunting have been described to mitigate this problem. In this article, the authors discuss a unique case whereby a reverse flow shunt restricted venous flap was used in an Urbaniak type III ring avulsion.
