Monodigital Double Cross-Finger Flaps—A Novel Approach for Coverage of Large Volar Defects

A single cross-finger flap can only address digital defects of a limited size, and larger defects often require distant flaps such as abdominal or groin flaps that are cumbersome to perform and sometimes bulky. Two cross-finger flaps harvested from the same donor digit could offer a simple and effective solution for many such defects. In this study, we describe the technique of monodigital double cross-finger flaps and its clinical applicability, with evaluation of donor and recipient site morbidity.
