Abstract
A considerable amount of literature has been written on microneurovascular surgery for the reconstruction of partial defects in fingers, but little has been published on reconstruction to replace lost fingernails. We report on two clinical cases in which a free vascularized nail graft and a "double onychocutaneous flap" were used successfully. We suggest that the free vascularized nail graft is a superior method in reconstruction to treat fingernail loss or deformity.Entities:
