Medium to large defects on the dorsal hand pose a reconstructive challenge following dermatologic surgery. Repairs in this location can be complicated by paucity of adjacent tissue reservoirs, competing tension vectors, thin cutaneous tissue, and superficial tendons vasculature. In such cases, double V-Y island pedicle flap is an effective solution. It preserves function, harnesses local with r...

The unique requirements of soft tissue coverage of the hand offer a challenge for the surgeon dealing with such defects. Local excision of such lesions may end in a defect that is not amenable to primary closure. Management of such defects requires the application of a graft or flap. We describe the application of a rotation flap for closure of a large defect on the dorsum of the hand following...
