Abstract: | Temporoparietal fascia free flap is an excellent source for resurfacing soft tissue defects of the hand and fingers. Because of the reliable anatomical bifurcation of the superficial temporal vessels, this flap can be very useful in simultaneous reconstruction of more than one digit without having to create a temporary syndactyly. |
