The degloving injury or transverse defect of distal phalanx were treated with abdominal random single pedicled flap of three leaves. Postoperative survival of skin flap, flap shape, complications were observed, and the static two-point discrimination of flap were determined.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All patients were followed up for 12.6 mouths in average. All the flaps survived. The color, texture and shape of the flaps were good. The static two-point discrimination was 5 to 10 mm. The function of the hands recovered satisfactory.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The method of abdominal random single pedicled flap of three leaves has the advantages of simple, safe and less trauma for the donor site.
