Pulp tissue loss of the fingers was repaired with arterialized venous flaps from the thenar or hypothenar regions in 13 patients. Thirteen of the 15 flaps transferred survived completely. The thenar and hypothenar skin is durable and of appropriate texture for replacement of finger pulp defects. An average flap size of 2 x 3 cm was adequate for repairing the tissue loss of the fingers. These are not sensory flaps. However, they exhibited useful sensory recovery within 6 months of the operation. This method is simple and results in minimal donor-site morbidity. The arterialized venous flap is thus a useful alternative for the repair of finger pulp tissue losses.
