Figure 1 From Finger Replantations After Ring Avulsion Amputations Indications. fingertip amputation with no exposed bone and > 2cm of tissue loss. flap reconstruction. indications. exposed bone or tendon where rongeuring bone proximally is not an option. surgical techniques. secondary intention. technique. initial treatment with irrigation and soft dressing. When there is a partial fingertip amputation with exposed bone you may need to use a rongeur to trim down the bone so skin can be closed over the top of it.

Should We Give Fingertip Amputations With Exposed Bone Prophylactic To rongeur a bone while managing a fingertip amputation, follow these steps: 1 treat these as open fractures, start iv antibiotics (often first generation cephalosporins) and update tetanus immunization if the patient has not received a booster within 5 years. advertisement. 2 control hemorrhage with direct pressure. Zone iii – between the dip and tuft that includes the insertion of the fdp, insertion of extensor tendon, germinal matrix and nail fold, that may require distal phalanx amputation. decision to rongeur bone and close in the ed should be guided by clinician familiarity with the procedure and hand surgeon availability, but these almost always. To use the rongeur, grasp the two ends with one hand (like pliers), then cut through the exposed bone by taking small millimeter chips away from bone. 9. continue cutting back the bone until you have enough soft tissue or skin over the bone through which to place a suture without overly stretching the skin. 10. Fingertip amputations managed by open technique after shortening the protruding bone result in nail plate deformities. skin graft induration or fissuring of the graft with reduced sensibility in the area of the finger is common; fewer than 50% of patients who undergo split skin grafting experience cold sensitivity in the affected finger.

Residual nail deformity was the usual cause of aesthetic dissatisfaction. in the total population of 1,592 fingertip amputations of our review, there were 100 reported nail deformities, (6 % of the fingertip injuries) [ 1, 3, 5, 6, 13, 15, 23, 28, 31 ]. the main residual deformity with secondary healing is the hook nail or parrot beak deformity.
