abstract="Repair of finger tip amputations depends upon the slope of transsection and how much of the tip has been amputated. Type 1 and 2 injuries are easily handled in the emergency room by local flaps with results acceptable by functional and economic criteria. Type 3 amputations with losses of less than 25 percent can be repaired by primary closure. Losses of 50 percent or over are best treated by local or &quot;distant&quot; flaps from the involved or adjacent fingers or palm. Each style of flap and technique has advantages and disadvantages.<p /><p>Language: en</p>",
