Management of Hand Avulsion Injury: A Case Report of a 39-Year-Old With Partial Soft Tissue Avulsion.

Hand injuries occur distal to the wrist crease in the upper limb. Infrequently life-threatening, but with the potential for severe disabilities and far-reaching effects. Hand injuries are common among productive adults. The initial stage in managing hand injuries is identifying the affected structures, followed by determining the urgent procedures required to restore full function. For example, suppose the mechanism of injury, the composition of the avulsed tissue, the extent of damage to the underlying tissues, and the dimension, pattern, and orientation of the avulsed tissue are favorable. In that case, successful reattachment of the avulsed tissue can be achieved. In this article, we describe a 39-year-old woman who underwent immediate repair of a partial avulsion of the radial aspect of her right hand with an almost satisfactory outcome.
