[Long-Term Outcome of Digital Defect Reconstruction using Cross-Finger Flaps].
Introduction: Although multiple advances have been made in finger defect reconstruction, cross-finger flaps remain an important reconstructive tool. However, data on long-term results are scarce in the literature. This study aimed to assess the clinical and subjective long-term outcomes of patients who underwent cross-finger flap reconstruction for palmar digital and fingertip defects.
Patients and methods: Between January 2003 and July 2022, 35 patients (31 male, 4 female, mean age: 59.0 years±20.1) were screened and included in the study. The data were obtained through a clinical examination, a Quick-DASH score and a self-designed questionnaire. Clinical outcomes were assessed by evaluating the range of motion (ROM) of the reconstructed finger and the donor finger compared with the contralateral uninjured hand. In addition to ROM, a static two-point separation test was performed to assess the sensory function of the reconstructed finger. The follow-up period was between 1 year and 19 years (mean: 12.6 years±6.1).
Results: There was no significant difference in terms of ROM between the reconstructed finger and the donor finger compared with the contralateral uninjured hand. All patients reported normal discrimination between sharp and blunt objects. However, there was a significant difference in two-point discrimination between the reconstructed finger and the healthy contralateral finger (p<0.05). The average Quick-DASH score was 5.1 points. Satisfaction with the functional outcome in terms of mobility and load-bearing capacity of the cross-finger flap averaged 8.1 out of 10 points. Satisfaction with the aesthetic outcome of the reconstructed finger averaged 7.7 out of 10 points. In 4 cases, persistent pain was reported when the reconstructed finger was under stress. No cases of pain at rest were reported.
Conclusion: In the long run, cross-finger flaps are a safe and effective reconstructive procedure for covering defects in palmar injuries of the finger and fingertip amputation. They represent a simple, reliable, long-lasting reconstructive technique. The necessary temporary iatrogenic syndactyly does not lead to long-term limitations in the range of motion.
