Abstract :

 Hand deformities such as loss of finger not only affect aesthetics, but also impose a functional impairment and cause a deep psychological stigma to the patient. Finger prosthesis is more acceptable by the patient when it allows some of the movement in the prosthesis along with the restoration of the natural appearance to the lost structures of the patient. This article describes a custom faicated, custom colored prosthesis made from silicone elastomers to make the prosthesis functional to imitate some of the movement.
