Abstract: | Although the prevalence of flexor tendon grafting has decreased since the early part of this century, the technique isstill an important part of a hand surgeons armamentarium. Primary and staged flexor tendon grafting are appropriate techniques used to restore digital function after failed or neglected repairs. Appropriate patient selection, meticulous reconstructive techniques, and respect for basic biological principles of healing and repair are essential elements for successful tendon grafting. |
