ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

A 61 year old man sustained electrical burns to hands requiring amputation of the right thumb and index finger at the metacarpophalangeal level. The thumb was reconstructed by means of on-top-plasty of the long finger. This is a reliable and safe technique in selected patients with severe, traumatic hand injuries.
