Abstract
We report a case of free vascularized, second-toe metatarsophalangeal joint transfer in a 34-year-old manual laborer. The metatarsophalangeal joint of the left second toe was transferred to the metacarpophalangeal joint of the right ring finger in a reversed fashion. Fourteen years after surgery the transferred joint is painless and stable and flexion is 80 degrees with extension lag of 52 degrees without arthritic changes on radiographs.Entities:
