Flexor Tendon Repair
During the last 20 years there have been significant innovations in injury repair and aftercare for patients who sustain zone 2 flexor tendon injuries. Improvements in our understanding of the mechanisms of repair and the variables that impact the function of the repair site have resulted in outcome improvements. The purpose of this article is to review advances in flexor tendon surgery and to ...
متن کاملFlexor tendon repair.
Healing canine flexor tendons treated with either total immobilization, delayed protected mobilization, or early protected mobilization was studied by biomechanical, microangiographic, biochemical, and histologic techniques at intervals through 12 weeks. The healing characteristics of the early mobilization tendons showed higher tensile strengths and improved gliding function than the delayed m...
متن کاملWide-awake flexor tendon repair.
The wide-awake approach to hand surgery is performed with no sedation and no tourniquet. Only locally injected tumescent lidocaine and epinephrine are used for anesthesia and hemostasis. The confirmation that epinephrine hemostasis in the finger is safe1–5 has permitted the use of this technique, which has now become widespread in Canada. With exceptions that include hand surgery in small child...
متن کاملEvaluation of Early Active Controlled Motion in Flexor Tendon Repair
Objectives: The objective was to determine the results of early active controlled motion in the patients rehabilitated by our new protocol. Methods: 91 fingers in 64 patients with flexor tendon repair in all zones were enrolled in a single group (quasi-experimental) clinical trial. 58 fingers in 43 patients were assessed at least three months postoperatively. Outcomes were defined using the ...
متن کاملEight-strand Cross-locked Cruciate Flexor Tendon Repair Using Double-stranded Suture: A Description of the Surgical Technique
This article describes a technique for improved repair of digital flexor tendon laceration. Eight-strand cross-locked cruciate repair using 4-0 caliber double-stranded suture is not bulky and has a smooth configuration for tendon gliding. Additionally, it has sufficient strength for early postoperative active motion exercise.
