Abstract In order to supply allografts for reconstruction of finger, repair of tendon or tendon sheath, the hands from fresh cadavers of healthy young persons who died from accident were amputated at the wristlevel. After disinfected, packed and labelled, the hands were stored into a deep freezer at -30℃ as bank storage. Before grafting, the skin and subcutaneoustissue were stripped from the frozen finger. Then it was immersed in an antibiotic fluid for 1 hour. The results showed that the immunological antigenicity of allograft was decreased by the freezing method. Bony union between the impacted host bone and the allogeneic phalangeal bone was seen on X-ray films. Bone absorption and joint degeneration were found at the area where no impaction between bones. The healing between tendons from host and that from the allografts was b. It was concluded that establishing a cadaveric hand bank in hospital was as important as establishing a bone bank for the supply of bone, joint, tendon, tendon sheath and finger composite tissue, for allogeneic grafts.
