This full color custom medical exhibit depicts a revision of a previous hand surgery to eliminate scar contractures of the first web space (between the thumb and first finger). The hand shown has already had three fingers fully amputated and the first finger amputated at the distal phalanx. The procedure portrayed is a four flap z-plasty which restores full movement of the thumb.
