A thenar flap reconstruction. (A), (B) A crush amputation injury over the left index finger. Almost half of the distal phalangeal was lost, and the bone was exposed. (C) Using the “replace like with like” concept, a thenar flap was designed to reconstruct the amputated stump of the left index finger. (D), (E) The functional recovery was good, and there was only a very fine scar over the thenar donor site (arrow). (F), (G), (H), (I) The cosmetic results were excellent with similar volar glabrous skin texture.
