Bilobed Flap for Post-Traumatic Angular Deformity Correction of the Fingers in Children

The Fingertip injuries, usually caused by domestic accidents, such as finger crushing in doors and windows, are very common in childhood. They can cause fractures, nail bed injuries and amputations, as well as combined injuries. Initial management, with correct diagnosis and treatment, is critical for the prevention of complications, whose incidence can reach almost 50% of cases. Severe injuries or inadequate treatment can compromise bone growth, causing deformities and loss of finger alignment, impairing function and skill development in later life.
