RESUMEN
The transposition of an adjacent finger following the loss of a finger due to a malignant tumor resection improves hand function. However, patients may not accept the resulting appearance of a three-finger hand. A 28-year-old male with a malignant fibroblastic tumor at the base of the ring finger underwent resection of the tumor, excising the phalanx and a portion of the metacarpal. He refused a ray amputation and subsequent fifth-finger transposition. Therefore, we reconstructed the defect with a long-vascularized subtotal second toe from the metacarpal neck to the middle phalanx base of the fourth finger. There was no tumor recurrence, and the patient was highly satisfied with hand function and cosmetic appearance at 3 years of follow-up.
