Abstract
A triangular volar flap has been used successfully for the reconstruction of amputated finger tips. It can be applied to most finger amputations except those with extensive soft-tissue loss on the volar side of the amputated finger tip. The distally based triangular flap, carefully prepared with intact nerve and blood supply, is advanced over exposed bone and approximated to the nail matrix. The V incision is closed by converting it to a Y.
