The dorsal metacarpal artery (DMCA) flap is a versatile option in the armamentarium of the reconstructive hand surgeon, especially for resurfacing dorsal finger defects where the flap options are limited. The flap fulfills most of the reconstructive principles such as “to replace like with like” and is simple, reliable, and easy to harvest with minimal donor site morbidity. In this report, we discuss the case of a 37-year-old male patient who presented with a partially healed wound over the right middle finger. Several variations of the DMCA flap have been described in the literature, and these are briefly described here along with their applications and vascular basis.
