RESUMEN
Defects of fingers or hands due to congenital reasons or trauma can be a catastrophic setback to an individual physically, emotionally, and psychologically. An artificial finger prosthesis is a lucrative option to camouflage such defects. The anatomy of the residual stump of the defect is of extreme importance and will dictate the mode of retention to be used, and the level of esthetics one can expect. Despite the availability of the advanced skills, best of materials, and laboratory support, sometimes, the anatomy of the defect may be a hindrance in furnishing a better prosthesis. This case report describes a cost-effective and simple approach of rehabilitation of a partially amputated finger with bulbous distal anatomy using a custom-made ring-wire substructure and maxillofacial silicone, thereby striking a balance between adequate retention and optimal esthetics.
