Abstract_ We present a case report of a free thenar flap surgery done for a volar right hand middle finger distal and middle phalanx degloving injury. A free thenar flap is a fasciocutaneous sensate flap supplied by a constant branch of the superficial radial artery and its variable nerve supply. It has a distinct advantage of low donor site morbidity better cosmesis and texture of the flap. No immobilization is required postop. The donor site can be closed primiarily. Background Numerous local or regional flaps have been used to cover medium to small size volar soft tissue defects of the digit. Large volar defects over the digit have presented a therapeutic challenge to the reconstructive hand surgeon. Free flaps from the feet or toes have been used to provide satisfactory coverage of these large defects however donor site morbidity is unavoidable and the patient s acceptance is questionable. We would like to report .
