AbstractDeep burns of the hands require skin flap coverage in order to protect the exposed vital structures. The groin flap is a safe and effective method of obtaining early closure of these defects. We have used groin flaps to cover deep hand burn defects in nine patients. In each case, groin flaps effectively covered the various defects, such as the volar aspect of the wrist, dorsum of the hand, first web space, thumb, and fingers.
