ABSTRACT
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To report emergency reconstruction of the complex dorsal digital defect using the composite flap with extensor tendon graft from the second toe.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From February 2001 to March 2010, 6 fingers in 6 patients with complex dorsal digital defects were repaired using the composite flap. The defect of the extensor tendon was also repaired with the extensor tendon graft harvested from the second toe.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the flaps survived completely with primary healing. The patients were followed up for 5 to 10 years. The flaps had a good match in skin color and texture. Both the esthetic and functional results were satisfactory either in recipient or in donor sites.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>The emergency reconstruction of the complex dorsal digital defect using the composite flap with extensor tendon graft is an effective way to repair the skin defect and extensor tendon defect simultaneously with good long-term results.</p>
