14 Reconstruction ofNail Defects
14.2.1 Indications
The defect of nail bed with intact nail matrix, no injury of phalanx, and good soft tissue in the palmar and distal end.
14.2.2 Surgical Design
The recipient site: The circumferential resection should be carried out to the normal nail bed margin according to the patient's ngernail condition (Fig.14.5).
The donor site: a transverse incision is made on the medial side on the ipsilateral upper arm to facilitate the appearance after suture (Fig.14.6).
14.2.3 Surgical Method
Anesthesia: Brachial plexus anesthesia or general anesthesia should be selected.
After the anesthesia is stable, the patient is placed in the supine position, and the affected side is driven by the tourni­quet. First, the wound should be completely debrided.
Treatment of bone exposure: a 0.8 mm Kirschner wire is used to drill holes on the dorsal side of the distal phalanx. All the holes should be arranged into squares, and the distance of each hole is 0.8mm. If accompanied by phalanx fracture, the fracture site, and its distal end are not suitable for drilling, so as not to cause local blood circulation disturbance, affecting bone healing and graft survival. To measure the range of n­gernail loss, the skin of the same size on the proximal medial side of the upper arm of the patient is generally taken as donor site. A transverse incision is made according to the design. The epidermal layer of the skin is carefully removed with a sharp knife to expose the dermis, and the graft is removed along the subsupercial fascia. The donor site can be sutured directly.
The tissue structure of the donor should be reversed, with the supercial fascia layer on the top and the dermis layer on the bottom to bury the bone of the phalanx on the wound surface, and the donor is sutured intermittently with the skin on the wound edge. Vaseline gauze pieces or cotton balls wrapped with vaseline gauze are packed and compressed. Use 4-0 mush thread intermittent suture, should not suture too tight and dense, so as not to tear the tissue, affect the blood supply and the survival rate of composite tissue.

Fig. 14.6 The design for the incision of the donor site
14.2.4 Operation Characteristics
(a) Convenient sampling: the whole body can be sampled,
the method is simple, without special equipment or technology;
(b) Less complications at the donor site: the donor site can
be sutured directly, with fast healing and no obvious complications;
(c) Multi-purpose of “one skin”: the split skin of removed
skin can be used to cover the skin defect area;
(d) It can avoid the scar healing after the nail bed defect, keep
the length and appearance of the nger, and retain the integ­rity of the nail bed, without affecting the attachment ability of the nail body, and without obvious local tenderness.
(e) Survival of the fascia layer restores the smooth surface
of the nail bed and gives the nail a more realistic appearance.
14.2.5 Announcements
(a) The bone surface of nail bed defect should be drilled to
provide enough blood for nutrition and ensure dermal survival.
(b) When removing the skin, the dermis should be of a cer-
tain thickness, which is equivalent to the thickness of the nail bed. If it is too thick, it is not easy to survive, or it may cause uneven nail growth.

(c) When the dermis covers the defect area, it should be
turned over and the Germanic layer should be outward to ensure close adhesion with the new nail and prevent the nail from separating.
(d) After suture, a pressure package should be made to make
the dermis closely adhere to the bone surface to ensure the survival of the dermis.
(e) Reasonable use of antibiotics after the operation to pre-
vent wound infection and tissue necrosis;
(f) When the wound is infected or bleeding or hemoceles
under the wrap, the suture should be removed immedi­ately, the wrap should be opened, the cause should be checked and remedial treatment should be made in time.
(g) Local immobilization of the affected limb, such as plas-
ter external xation, which is prohibited to remove at will to limit the movement of the affected nger.
14.3 Reconstruction ofNail Defect by Toenail Flap Transplantation
Nail is one of the important parts of the nger. The defect of the nail will affect the appearance and function of the nger. Repair and reconstruction of nail bed defects have always been a hot topic in the clinical work of hand surgeons. Just the wound repair is relatively simple. Various pedicled skin tubes, pedicled skin aps, and adjacent nger aps can be used to cover the wound surface in clinic, but that can only solve the problem of the wound surface, while the repair and reconstruction of the defect of the nail bed cannot meet the requirements of appear­ance and function. With the development of microsurgery, the clinical use of free toenail ap transplantation to reconstruct the defect of ngernails is satisfactory and has been a classic way of repair, which has been gradually miniaturization after con­tinuous improvement and development.
In 1988, Koshima designed a free toenail ap containing
blood vessels and nerves on the basis of great toenail ap for
nail defects or deformities. after the operation, it was found that the nail was successfully reconstructed, with no defor­mities in appearance and good functional recovery. In 2002, Chinese scholar Yuan Guanghai etal. designed a half toenail ap for half or partial defect of the ngernail bed, which had a good postoperative effect. The current clinical design for nail bed defects is a kind of miniature toenail ap including nail bed, blood vessels, and nerves, and its therapeutic effect has been widely recognized clinically.
14.3.1 Indications
(a) Most or total (necrotic) defects in the ngernails; (b) Patients have a strong desire for reconstruction and a high requirement for the appearance of the nger; (c) The toenails are normal, and the blood vessels have no obvious deformity; (d) The optimal age is under 60 years old.
14.3.2 Surgical Design
According to the size of the ngernail defect, to determine the removed toenail and range. For the reconstruction of thumbnail defect, the ipsilateral great toenail is usually used. For the reconstruction of other ngernails, the second toenail can be selected. In addition, according to the defect area and shape of the skin and nail on the dorsal side of the thumb or the other nger, the great toe or the second toe on the ipsilat­eral or opposite side combined with the dorsal nail ap can be designed to repair the corresponding thumb or ngernail defects on the dorsal side. Arteries: the rst dorsal metatarsal artery—the bular dorsal digitorum artery great toe or the tibial dorsal digitorum artery of the second toe; veins: dorsal digitorum vein—dorsal digitorum vein of the great toe; for nerve defects, dorsal branch of deep peroneal nerve of great toe can be grafted for repair (Fig.14.7).

14 Reconstruction ofNail Defects
14.3.3 Surgical Method
Preparation fortheRecipient Site
To retain healthy tissue as far as possible while debridement is performed. Then emergency operation or scheduled trans­plantation 3–5 days later is selected according to the situa­tion. The size and shape of the nail defect should be carefully measured before operation, and whether there is bone defect or skin defect.
Preparation fortheDonor Site
Appropriate great toenail aps, half-toenail aps, and toenail aps are designed according to the defect in the recipient site, and the donor site should be cleaned and prepared to ensure that transplanted tissue is without local infection and damage.
The Cutting oftheToe (Take theToenail Flap oftheGreat Toe forExample)
The skin and subcutaneous incision are made on the bular side of the great toe and the dorsal side of the rst toe web. The plantar digitorum artery and dorsal digitorum vein of the great toe are dissociated from distal to proximal. If nec­essary, it could be extended to the dorsal metatarsal vein which should be cut off at an appropriate distance and ligated at the proximal end. Cut open the skin at the toe pulp according to the design, combined with subcutaneous tissue of appropriate thickness is lifted to the bular side of the bottom of the toe. At the deep surface of neurovascular bun­dle (The artery and nerve are included in the ap) dissocia­tion is performed to the edge of nails, according to the design line incision is made along the nails (from root to the free edge) to the surface of the bone, and dissociate to the
bular side and merge with toe pulp ap. If the phalanges need to be cut, the end of the extensor digitorum longus ten­don of the great toe should be dissociated when the skin is cut at the dorsal side. First, the half of the phalanx is cut laterally far from the termination point, and then the toenail and the deep part of the phalanx are cut longitudinally to form the toenail (bone) ap pedicled with the bular artery or plantar metatarsal artery and nerve of the great toe which is dissociated proximally with appropriate length and cut off for later use.
Transplantation
After the toenail ap is cut, the subcutaneous fat should be removed under the operating microscope. The brous tissue between the ap and toenail is cut off to make the ap fully open so as to accommodate the phalanx. When moving to the hand, the toenail is rst xed to the residual phalanx with a Kirschner wire. Dissociate the proximal nail margin and lift it up to x the surrounding tissue to form a bilateral symme­try of the semi-arc. Then, the free edge of the toe is removed about 0.2 cm, and the epidermis is inverted with the edge of the nail bed. If there is still some residual soft tissue on one side of the affected nger, the nail fold will be reconstructed by a mattress suture. If there is just residual nail fold on the affected nger, the toenail will be disengaged and repaired, and inserted into it. If there is still some residual nail bed on the affected nger, the nail plates of about 0.3cm on both sides of the nail bed will be removed respectively. The exposed nail bed is sutured distally from the methyl with a 5-0 noninvasive suture. Trim the distal free edge of toenail to make both sides symmetrical. Anastomosis of digital and digitorum vessels and nerves is performed (Figs.14.8, 14.9, and 14.10).

Postoperative Treatment
(a) Strengthen nursing, closely observe the blood supply for the nail; (b) Postoperative “three anti” and other routine tis­sue transplantation therapy should be carried out; (c) Heat preservation should be carried out; (d) No smoking during the perioperative period.
14.3.4 Operation Characteristics
(a) The defect of ngernail itself has little effect on the
function of nger. The main purpose of the reconstruc-
219
tive operation is to solve the aesthetic problem. Therefore, this operation has a higher requirement for appearance and requires a ne design to meet the requirements of the patient;
(b) The risk of operation is high, and the requirement for
microsurgical technique is higher;
(c) The appearance of reconstructed nails after the operation
is realistic and the effect is good;
(d) It is suitable for the whole nail bed, part of the nail bed
defect, and also for patients with phalanx and skin defects.
14.3.5 Announcements
(a) Precise surgical method is designed to protect the donor
site and reduce damage to the great toe. If phalanges were needed, iatrogenic fractures should be avoided.
(b) When cutting the nail bed, try to leave a thin layer of the
nail bed to facilitate the re-growth of the toenail bed. A little skin should be attached around the nail to facilitate the suture and xation with the ngertips.
(c) Protect the connection between the nail bed and the
artery. After the pedicle is cut off, the nail ap should be trimmed under a microscope to remove the excess toe bone and soft tissue. At the same time, pay attention to maintaining the integrity of the nail bed when the nail bed is separated from the toe bone.
(d) To ensure the anastomosis quality of blood vessels, be
careful not to be too long or rotated or twist, 8 needles of 11-0 sitch is appropriate while the ratio of arteriovenous can be 1:1 or 1:2.
(e) The arteries and veins of the donor site should be appro-
priately longer when cutting in order to have a larger diameter and healthier blood vessels for anastomosis.
(f) The tunnel where the toenail ap is xed with the vascu-
lar nerve pedicle should be loose, which even can be opened if necessary;
(g) Avoid injuring the nail matrix when cutting, otherwise, it
will lead to the development of deformity of the recon­structed nail and affect the appearance.
(h) After the operation, lie in bed absolutely for a week and
pay attention to indoor heat preservation, a quiet and smoke-free environment is also required.

Abstract
The nger pulp defect of thumb and other ngers is com­mon in clinic, which affects the integrity of ngertip and the holding function. Traditional local aps, reverse aps, and free aps can all be used to repair the wound surface, but the function and appearance are difcult to satisfy patients. The reason is that the nger pulp has its special structure: the skin surface of the nger pulp has a large number of ne skin lines; the dermis of the nger pulp is composed of dense connective tissue; the deep dermis of the nger pulp is closely connected with the subcutaneous tissue, and the deep subcutaneous fat tissue is separated by many vertical ber bundles which attach to the deep fascia. Therefore, when the nger pulp is to be recon­structed, the above structures need to be reconstructed. Obviously, only the toe pulp is the ideal donor site. At present, the commonly used donor sites in clinical prac­tice include bular ap of the great toe and tibial ap of the second toe. The former one has larger soft tissue vol­ume, and the donor site is easy to be sutured directly which is focused on in this chapter.

that surgeons can use this technology to complete the recon­struction of the nger pulp defect better.
The palmar nger ap is a skin ap containing bilateral palmar proper arteries and nerve bundles, which can be dis­sociated and moved forward to repair and reconstruct the nger pulp defect. Due to the dense skin structure on the palm of the nger, the postoperative nger pulp is plump and wear resistant, and the feeling is good.
15.1.1 Indications
(a) Simple nger pulp defect caused by trauma or nger pulp ischemic necrosis, the range is not more than 1.5 cm; (b) The defect in the distal segment of the nger.
15.1.2 Surgical Design
Longitudinal lines are drawn in the middle of both sides of the affected nger, and the proper neurovascular bundles of both sides should be included in the palmar ap.

15.1 Reconstruction ofFinger Pulp Defect by Local ThumbFlap
Finger pulp is the most sensitive part of hand touch, the touch function of the hand completely depends on the nger pulp to complete. Therefore, the nger pulp defect needs to be repaired with high quality as far as possible, especially to restore the tactile function and good appearance. The devel­opment of microsurgery has also created good technical con­ditions for the repair and reconstruction of the nger pulp, so

(b) Anesthesia: Brachial plexus block, digital nerve block,
or exor tendon sheath anesthesia can be used.
(c) The design of the ap: A line should be drawn along the
middle line on both sides of the nger stump wound to the root of the nger.
(d) Surgical steps: The operation is performed under the
control of a tourniquet. After debridement of the nger stump, the skin is cut along the midline incision line on both sides, and the skin is sharply separated from the distal end to the proximal end on the supercial surface
