  • Title: Sensate palm of hand free flap for forearm length preservation in nonreplantable forearm amputation: long-term follow-up.
    Author: Rohrich RJ, Ehrlichman RJ, May JW.
    Journal: Ann Plast Surg; 1991 May; 26(5):469-73. PubMed ID: 1952722.
    Abstract:
    In traumatic proximal forearm amputation where replantation is not possible, "spare parts" from the amputated segment can be used to maintain adequate length for successful use of a below-elbow prosthesis. Two patients with long-term follow-up are presented in whom forearm length was preserved with the use of a sensate palmar skin free flap.
