A Systematic Review of the Sensory Outcomes of a Standard Cross-Finger Flap Reconstruction for Fingertip Defects
JOURNAL OF HAND SURGERY-ASIAN-PACIFIC VOLUME(2022)
摘要
Background: The standard (dorsal) cross-finger flap (CFF) is one of the common flaps used for fingertip reconstruction. There is little consensus regarding the sensory outcomes associated with this flap. In this systematic review, we evaluated objective sensory outcome parameters of patients who underwent CFF reconstruction. Methods: This systematic review is reported using the PRISMA protocol and was registered with the International Prospective Register of Systematic Reviews. Literature search was done using the terms 'cross-finger flap', 'heterodigital', 'finger-tip' and 'transdigital'. Data regarding the number of patients, follow-up duration and sensory outcomes, including 2-point discrimination (2-PD) were extracted from included studies. The analysis was performed using Microsoft Excel with MetaXL add-in software. Certainty assessment and summary of findings table was created using GRADEpro GOT. Results: This review includes 14 studies with 301 patients. We found a statistically significant difference in static 2-PD of recipient and control fingers (pooled weighted mean difference [WMD]: 1.66; 95%CI: 0.03, 3.29; p= 0.00; I-2=92%, n = 7 studies). Conclusions: Dorsal CFF reconstruction for fingertip defect does not provide adequate sensory recovery.
