We present a case of Allen type 4 traumatic amputation of the ring finger in a year old child for whom cross finger flap with gaft reposition on flap was done. The child was followed up for 2 years and presents with good cosmesis and no functional disability. The technique of harvesting the nail bed and repositioning over the distal phalanx along with cross finger flap is reliable and can be easily executed in such cases.
