Amputation of the little finger.

J Høgh1, G Hooper.   

Abstract

We review 17 patients who had 21 amputations of the little finger. Transmetacarpal amputations gave satisfactory results in older patients, but in young patients loss of breadth of the palm caused significant disability. Disarticulation through the metacarpophalangeal joint is recommended in younger patients.
