Abstract
Flexor tendon injuries in zones I-III in the hand were treated by meticulous suture of the tendons and peritendinous structures, followed by early passive mobilization of the injured fingers, the remaining fingers being kept extended by a plaster splint. This method was used in 51 cut tendons in 38 patients. The functional recovery approached normal in 72%, and only 8% were poor.
