PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to investigate and compare outcomes of 2 different flap techniques for fingertip reconstruction: innervated digital artery perforator (IDAP) flap and homodigital reverse-flow flap.
METHODS: Medical records of 33 patients who underwent fingertip reconstruction either with an IDAP flap (15 patients) or with a homodigital reverse-flow flap (18 patients), between 2014 and 2016, were evaluated retrospectively. In both study groups, full-thickness skin grafts harvested from the proximal/volar side of the forearm were used to cover the flap donor site. Flap survival, venous congestion, cold intolerance, static 2-point discrimination, flap size, duration of surgery, time to return to work, proximal and distal interphalangeal joint range of motion, Disability of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand questionnaire scores, and follow-up time were evaluated.
RESULTS: All the major outcomes, including flap survival, cold intolerance, static 2-point discrimination, flap size, time to return to work, range of motion values for proximal and distal interphalangeal joints, Disability of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand questionnaire scores, and follow-up time, were similar between the 2 flap methods. Mean duration of surgery was shorter in the IDAP flap group. Marginal flap necrosis occurred in 1 IDAP flap, and there was complete survival of the remainder of the flap after debridement. Temporary venous congestion was seen in 3 IDAP flaps, all of which resolved with nonsurgical measures.
CONCLUSIONS: Similar success rates and satisfactory outcomes were achieved with IDAP flap and reverse-flow flap techniques used for fingertip reconstruction.
TYPE OF STUDY/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Therapeutic IV.
