چکیده

A method for creating a model for fabricating a partial hand glove prosthesis is described. The realigned casts of the corresponding digits of the contralateral uninjured hand were used to substitute for the lost digits on a cast of the stump. The technique allows an exact reproduction of the anatomical and fine surface details of the digits. It has the advantage of customisation, allowing a close match in the size, shape and surface characteristics of the prosthesis to that of the remaining digits of the hand.
