متن کاملFunctional evaluation after primary flexor tendon repair in zone II.
The purpose of this prospective study was to evaluate the results of primary treatment of flexor tendon laceration in zone II according to Verdan's zone system. Special emphasis was given to the postoperative rehabilitation program. Nineteen patients (23 fingers) with laceration of the flexor tendons in zone II were treated operatively. Twelve males and seven females were included in the study....
متن کاملa comparative study of two suture configurations in zone ii flexor tendon repair in adults
although the increase in the number of core sutures during flexor tendon repair increases the tensile strength of the repair, both increased handling at the time of repair and increased bulk at the repair site have been hypothesized as affecting clinical outcomes by increasing gliding resistance. the purpose of our study was to assess whether increasing the number of core sutures from two stran...
متن کامل[Flexor tendoplasty with a tendon prosthesis for zone II flexor tendon injuries].
OBJECTIVES We evaluated two-staged flexor tendoplasty with tendon prosthesis in patients with flexor tendon injuries in which conventional tendon grafting would fail to yield an acceptable result. METHODS We performed flexor tendoplasty with tendon prosthesis in 37 hands of 31 patients (24 males, 7 females; mean age 23 years; range 4-46 years). Twenty-six patients had penetrating injuries, fo...
متن کاملEnhanced Zone II Flexor Tendon Repair through a New Half Hitch Loop Suture Configuration
This study evaluated the impact of a new half hitch loop suture configuration on flexor tendon repair mechanics. Cadaver canine flexor digitorum profundus tendons were repaired with 4- or 8-strands, 4-0 or 3-0 suture, with and without half hitch loops. An additional group underwent repair with half hitch loops but without the terminal knot. Half hitch loops improved the strength of 8-strand rep...
