[Use of surgical flaps for plastic surgery in posterior adduction cicatricial contracture of the thumb]. 1989

V M Grishkevich, and V Iu Moroz, and B S Salikhbaev, and Kh V Miatiev

Methods of flap and combined plastics in dorsal adduction cicatricial contracture of the thumb are discussed. Different variants of plastics are substantiated on the basis of study of the anatomical features of the contracture. The formation of a commissure by a trapeziform flap of skin and fatty tissue of the palmar layer and palm is the foundation of the operation. Depending on the degree of deficiency of the cicatricial layer of the fold in the first interdigital space, the wounds to the sides of the main flap are closed with local tissues or by free dermatoplasty. The operative methods were approved in more than 200 patients and good functional and cosmetic results were produced in all of them.
