The first dorsal metacarpal propeller perforator (FDMP) flap for finger reconstruction

We describe here the first dorsal metacarpal artery propeller perforator flap, used to cover a full thickness, radiopalmar defect of the index finger after tumour excision. By associating a propeller design to the dissection of the first metacarpal pedicle, this flap can be effective in coverage of...

description We describe here the first dorsal metacarpal artery propeller perforator flap, used to cover a full thickness, radiopalmar defect of the index finger after tumour excision. By associating a propeller design to the dissection of the first metacarpal pedicle, this flap can be effective in coverage of proximal index and web space defects, with primary closure and pleasant aesthetic outcomes. Harvested together with a superficial sensory branch from the radial nerve, this flap can provide effective coverage and sensory recovery.
