Flexor tendon injuries in the hand present a real challenge in treatment. Poorly chosen or poorly executed treatment may lead to a functionless finger at best, impairing total hand function. A variety of approaches to treatment of flexor tendon injuries is available to the specially trained surgeon and a particular method is selected based on the merits of the case in question. Primary tendon repair is a viable choice under the proper conditions, while delayed primary repair allows a somewhat broader application of this technique. Flexor tendon grafting remains a very useful operation for the surgeon caring for tendon injuries of the hand.
手部屈肌腱损伤的治疗是一项真正的挑战。治疗方法选择不当或实施不佳，至多可能导致手指功能丧失，损害手部整体功能。经过专门培训的外科医生有多种治疗屈肌腱损伤的方法可供选择，并会根据具体病例的情况选择特定的方法。在适当的条件下，一期肌腱修复是一种可行的选择，而延迟一期修复则使该技术的应用范围更广。对于处理手部肌腱损伤的外科医生来说，屈肌腱移植仍然是一项非常有用的手术。
