Abstract
In ten cases definitive loss of sensibility in an important territory of the hand has been treated by a hetero-digital, neurovascular skin island transfer. Operative technique and results obtained are reported. Although not enough patients have been treated to allow us to give precise indications for the procedure, two such indications clearly emerge: 1) the treatment of insensitive digits; 2) the reconstruction of the thumb or fingers. The procedure could probably be used elsewhere than in the hand.
