Abstract: The goal of surgery in fingertip amputation is to restore finger length, preserve function and at the same time provide cosmetic acceptability. Treatment options are varied and can range from simple suturing of the stump to microvascular replantation surgery. We report three cases of fingertip amputations in one adult and two pediatric patients treated with non-microsurgical replantation of the fingertip using the palmar "pocket" technique.
