Abstract
In recent years, our unit has put into practice of flexor tendon repairs a number of novel concepts, which we hope address some critical difficulties in primary flexor tendon repairs in Zone 2, thus pointing the way towards predictable surgical outcomes. In this article, I present my practical views on indications, techniques, post-surgical treatment and outcome measures, and describe our methods of sheath-pulley release, tendon repair, postoperative motion and outcome evaluation.
