Wrap-around procedure for thumb reconstruction.

Urbaniak, JR
Published in: Hand Clin
May 1985

The wrap-around procedure provides length, stability, and adequate sensibility for a functional pinch and grasp and also preserves the great toe. The procedure esthetically simulates the normal thumb and is relatively reliable when performed by a surgeon who is experienced in microsurgery. Although the technique requires thorough planning and lengthy and meticulous surgery, the successful outcome is rewarding.
