Ring finger avulsion is a rare but severe hand injury, typically caused by a ring catching on a fixed object during a fall or sudden traction. This retrospective study analyzes seven cases treated at the Mohammed V Military Teaching Hospital between 2017 and 2021. All patients were male military personnel presenting with complete amputation of the left ring finger, classified as Urbaniak stage III. Each underwent surgical management with Chase amputation and medialization of the ring finger. Surgery was performed within an average of 12 hours post-injury. Early rehabilitation was initiated to optimize functional recovery. After a two-year follow-up, all patients achieved satisfactory functional and aesthetic outcomes. The Chase technique, which repositions the middle finger to replace the ring finger, offers a reliable solution when replantation is not possible. This study highlights the need for early intervention, proper rehabilitation, and increased awareness of preventive measures, especially in high-risk occupational settings.
