Abstract
The complete ring avulsion injury presents a difficult choice between microvascular repair and further amputation. The former is technically difficult and the latter leaves an undesirable result. We describe an alternative method whereby a thinned groin flap is applied to volar surface and sides of the finger and a full-thickness skin graft covers the dorsum. This provides good quality cover to the volar aspect and avoids bulk on the dorsum.
