SANTANDER, Brenda; GARCIA, Mildred  y  ALIAGA, Augusto. Colgajo torácico a distancia para la reconstrucción de un segmento de la mano. Cuad. - Hosp. Clín. [online]. 2007, vol.52, n.1, pp.90-92. ISSN 1562-6776.

Reconstruction of the damaged hand and consequently preservation of the capacity of movement, is extremely important since it is a vital part of human economy. This at distance skin graft is ideal for traumatic lesions of the upper extremities when severe and important lesions are present that affect bones, muscles and tendons, because it is feasible and preserves the function of movement. In this sense, we present the case of a patient who suffered ablation of fingers of the right hand as a consequence of electric burning. At distance skin graft of the anterior thorax region to the first interdigital space was carried out obtaining good results with recovery of the function of the hand.

Palabras clave : Exposure of bones, muscles and tendons of the hand; at distance skin graft.
