| Abstract: | Wound contraction is efficient in healing certain soft tissue wounds of the hand. Such spontaneous healing has advantages over primary surgical wound closure, in being virtually free of haematoma and infection complications and in allowing early post-operative finger movements. This paper reviews experiences of this wound healing process in the healing of fingertip, dorsal and volar soft tissue defects. |
