Abstract

1 . A method of restoring protective sensibility to the thumb by a neurovascular pedicle graft is described.

2. The pedicle is taken from the dorsum of the index finger.

3. The method has been modified to include a racquet-shaped skin flap to give continuous sensibility from the pulp down the antero-medial border of the thumb.
