Although most thermal injuries to the hand can be successfully managed with excision and grafting, deeper injuries may require microsurgical techniques to provide stable, durable coverage and the optimal functional result. In delayed reconstruction, thin pliable flaps can be used to resurface the hand or allow for contracture releases. Proper patient and procedure selection are critical to the success of microsurgical reconstruction.
