The use of rubber gloves to assist surgical tasks in hand surgery has been reported previously [1]. Surgical rubber glove is a cheap tool that could be used as a T-ring tourniquet or as a retraction tool while performing sharp debridement or osteotomy. In trans-phalangeal finger replantation, osteotomy and bone osteosynthesis are crucial to achieve optimal possible functional outcomes. A 10 x 10 centimeters piece of rubber surgical glove with a small 2 millimeters puncture hole is cut with a No. 11 surgical blade. After periosteal elevation is performed, the amputated phalanx, distal or proximal, is passed through and a mosquito or babcock is used to provide stability during manipulation [2]. While draping the digital soft tissues under the rubber glove, the line of osteotomy is clearly visualised (Figure 1). The saw is then used to safely and effectively cut through with precision and without the interference of soft tissue during osteotomy. In finger replantation, tissue retraction is a key step in achieving optimal osteosynthesis without the intrusion of the surrounding soft tissues (Figure 2) [3]. It’s a simple and cheap technique and allows better grip with a regular glove to fully enclose all soft tissues to prevent iatrogenic injury during osteotomy [1,2].

Venous anastomosis is the most challenging part of fingertip replantation, where vein-to-vein anastomosis should be considered as the first-line option for its restoration. If the sizable vein cannot be identified, arterial-venous shunting and two-staged subdermal pocket procedure shall be the alternative surgical options. Arterial anastomosis-only replantation technique is an option when the vein is unavailable.

Only a few cases of self- or auto-cannibalism (autosarcophagy) have previously been reported in the literature. This case of autosarcophagy demonstrates the most severe self-cannibalistic physical abuse triggered by concurrence of psychotic depression and hypothyroidism induced personal crisis psychopathology without the use of psychoactive substances, which requires full reconstruction.
