Abstract：Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of inside tarsal free vein flap and forearm free vein flap in treating hand soft tissue defect ,and to provide a theoretical basis for the clinical selection .Methods The clinical data of 63 patients with hand soft tissue defect were retrospectively analyzed ,who were admitted into our hospi-tal from Sep.2011 to Sep.2012.All cases were divided into observation group and control group according to the flap type.Thirty-five patients using inside tarsal free vein flap were taken as observation group ,28 patients using forearm free vein flap were taken as control group .The clinical efficacy and long-term recovery of the two groups were com-pared.Results The hospitalization time,postoperative infection and primary stage healing rate in the observation group were significantly better than those in the control group ( P<0.05) .One year after treatment ,the hand function of the observation group was significantly better than that of the control group ,with statistical difference (P<0.05). Conclusion The inside tarsal free vein flap can achieve quick recovery and satisfactory curative effect .
