ABSTRACT

Finger ring avulsion injuries can be functionally, cosmetically and emotionally devastating for the patient. This cadaveric study assessed a simple way to prevent ring avulsion injuries. Fresh cadaver fingers were used to test the incidence of avulsion injury with ordinary rings and when a single slot was cut in the ring. Intact rings mostly produced significant digital injuries, while the rings with slots did not.
