Where this comes from

Abstract

Fingertips are extremely important functional structures, and secondary deformities can cause a great deal of inconvenience if not disability. Injuries to the fingertip must be treated with the same care as is used for all other hand surgery, providing coverage to the tip of the finger with good quality of skin and with the best sensibility possible. By far and away the best method of treatment of complications is their prevention.
