  • Title: Thumb reconstruction with a free neurovascular wrap-around flap from the big toe.
    Author: Morrison WA, O'Brien BM, MacLeod AM.
    Journal: J Hand Surg Am; 1980 Nov; 5(6):575-83. PubMed ID: 7000885.
    Abstract:
    Thumb reconstruction requires accurate functional and esthetic approximation to the original. Accepted methods generally have some deficiencies, particularly in appearance, and frequently the secondary morbidity is unacceptable. A method of thumb reconstruction with the use of an iliac crest bone graft and a free neurovascular "wrap-around" flap from the big toe is described that combines the attributes of previous methods without their secondary morbidity.
