Аннотация
The loss of a finger in any capacity as a result of trauma has a significant influence on the patient's everyday life, as well as their psychological and physical health. Multiple conventional techniques have been reported in the literature, mostly offering psychological and cosmetic benefits to such individuals. However, there is a paucity of literature for functional finger prosthesis. This case report describes rehabilitation of an amputated index finger using an innovative digital workflow, thereby making it impression-free, cast-free, accurate, less time-consuming, and above all functionally viable. Digital technology was used for designing, and fabrication of this prosthesis was done using three-dimensional (3-D) printing. When compared to traditional prostheses, this 3-D-printed prosthesis was functional, allowing the patient to conduct everyday activities and providing the patient's confidence a psychological boost.
