Large soft tissue defects of the pulp of the thumb and fingers may be successfully covered using the palmar advancement flap described by MOBERG, which is based on both neurovascular pedicles. In a series of 21 cases there were no shortcomings with regard to sensibility, padding of the distal phalanx or joint function. In 50% of the cases however there was a deformity of the nail and dysesthesia in the region of the hyponychium.
