Wrap-around partial great toe transfer, a one time dream, is now a well established and universally accepted method of thumb reconstruction. In this technique, part of the soft tissue of the great toe are wrapped around and shaped to the size of the graft from iliac bone in such a manner that a thumb of normal dimensions and shape is produced. Instead of the iliac bone graft, we found great merit in using the second metacarpal from the traumatised hand to be reconstructed. In this paper its use and merits are elaborated.
环行部分拇趾转移术，曾经一度只是个梦想，如今已成为一种成熟且被广泛接受的拇指再造方法。在这项技术中，拇趾的部分软组织被环绕并塑形，以适应取自髂骨的移植骨的大小，从而形成一个尺寸和形状正常的拇指。我们发现，用受伤待重建手部的第二掌骨来替代髂骨移植骨有很大的优势。本文将详细阐述其应用及优势。
