During past 2 years from 1987 to 1989, 30 fingers of 22 cases of finger tip injuries and finger amputations were treated conservatively using aluminium foil (aluminium for cooking). The dressing was changed fist on the following day of injury and then every three days.The average wound healing period was 32.7 days, ranging from 26 to 38 days. The created stump was free from severe pain and tenderness and tolerated daily use excellently.The injured finger tip was packed by aluminium foil, so that the wound was always wet and epithelialization was promoted and a round shaped stump was created.The conservative therapy for finger tip injuries is economical and simple, and the result is stable regardless the ability of the doctors.
