Abstract

The primary use of the hand is to grasp, hold, and manipulate objects. Perhaps the most obvious kind of non-verbal communication is the hand gesture. The most common types of partial hand loss are finger and partial finger amputations. Traumatic injuries, congenital absences, or abnormalities are frequent causes, and they create significant treatment issues. In addition to the acute loss of grab power, the disappearance of fingers may result in significant psychological harm. People who want their fingers replaced frequently have high expectations for how a prosthesis will look. This clinical report illustrates an easy way to keep an acrylic finger prosthetic in place.
