Resurfacing of skin in hand injuries.

The Authors discuss their experience with the use of various flaps (radial artery, groin and abdomen) in the primary or delayed cover of skin defect in the hand, in a total number of 20 cases. All the three types of flaps took up well in 3-4 weeks with minimal complications. The Authors preferred the radial artery flap to the groin and abdominal flaps, in that order.
