Abstract
Microsurgical reconstruction offers unique opportunities for improving function and appearance in children's hands affected by congenital anomalies or following trauma. Strong parallels exist between the surgery for congenital and post-traumatic defects. This article defines some of the methods used in replacement of skin, the creation of new digits, and the transfer of muscles.
