Abstract
This case report describes the rehabilitation path of a man who sustained severe burns to his body and extremities as a result of a bushfire. The fingers of both hands were amputated except the thumbs and although he was a candidate for autologous transplant, declined this option for various reasons. Bilateral prostheses were made and resulted in a significant improvement in functional outcome without the need for surgery. Prostheses are practical alternatives to surgery and should be considered in selected patients.
