ABSTRACT
@#Objective To investigate clinical effects of evaluating the reoeonstructiun of wounds in the thumb-nail donor site using tibial of the second toe in reducing and preventing complications related to this are. Methods Surface of the thumb-nail flap donor site was pestoperatively recovered using tibial flaps of the second toe for 8 patients; conjunct full-thickness dermotaplasthy was performed for the sites which could not be completely covered by flaps. Full-thickness flaps were used to repair the second-toe doner sites. Results All flaps in the thumb-nail donor sites of the 8 patients survived; partial necrosis of base in the second toe was seen in one case, and the wonds healed with change of dreeings. A follow-up study beyon d4 to 14 months revealed favorable texture, normal shape of flaps and complete healing of the graft area without formation of ulcer. Foot-walking functions were not exposed to significant impact. Conclusion It is a safely and reliably effective method to repair the thumb-nail donor sites using tibiai flaps of the second toe such that complications in the donor sites are minimized.
