Severe Hand Avulsion Injury

A: Irreplantable fingers after an avulsion injury in a car accident. Massive contamination. Initial management included radical debridement. The small finger was totally destroyed and amputated.
B: 72 hours later the extensor tendons were grafted, a second toe was transplanted on top of middle phalanx in the middle finger position, and a free gracilis was used for cover. A week later the contralateral second toe was transplanted on top of the middle phalanx of the ring finger, achieving a four digit hand.
C: Early result (5 weeks) after the reconstruction.
