  • ABDOMINAL BIPEDICLED SUBEPIDERMAL VASCULAR NETWORK FLAP IN REPAIR OF DEGLOVING INJURY OF HAND

    OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical result of repairing degloving injury of hand with abdominal bipedicled subdermal vascular-network flap in emergence. METHODS: From 1994 to 1997, 19 cases with degloving injury of hand were treated with two flaps, one flaps with the inferior epigastric artery as pedicle, another with superficial epigastric artery. The two skin flaps were designed oppositely to cover the injured hands. RESULTS: All the flaps survived. Followed up for 1 to 3 years, the contour of hands were fine. Extension of fingers was normal and opponers of thumbs was good. Range of flexion of metacarpo-phalangeal joints was from 45 to 60 degrees, and the proximal interphalangeal joints was from 10 to 25 degrees. CONCLUSION: For the subdermal vascular network, the bipedicled flaps of abdomen in repair of degloving injury of hand have sufficient blood supply, b resistance to infection, high survival rate, and good contour.
