  • Title: [Emergency reconstruction using partial transfer of toes. Apropos of 6 cases].
    Author: Leps P, Schoofs M, Millot F.
    Journal: Ann Chir Plast Esthet; 1994 Jun; 39(3):272-6. PubMed ID: 7717660.
    Abstract:
    The authors report on 6 cases for which an emergency toe partial transfer was performed for the reconstruction of a thumb or long finger digital segment. In most cases, toe pulp transfer was involved, but also partial composite pulp-bone-nail transfers. Such technique, whose indications seldom apply in an emergency, gives better results than conventional techniques (such as homo- and hetero-digital flaps or distant flaps).
