Early Mobilization of Repaired Flexor Tendons Within Digital Sheath Using an Internal Profundus Splint: Experimental and Clinical Data

Abstract
The repair of severed flexor tendons in Zone II continues to be a problem. A new technique using an internal splint prevents disruption of the repair and allows early active motion. The technique was first tested in the rhesus monkey and then used in a clinical series of 29 repairs with encouraging results.
