[A method of correcting cicatricial flexion contracture of the fingers].

A method for elimination of the flexion cicatrical contracture of fingers used in 46 patients (109 fingers) is described. The operations included plasty of the flexion surface of the fingers by contrary trapezoid flaps cut from the palmar and lateral surfaces of the finger, displacement of the flaps towards each other and their suturing. In 43 patients (103 fingers) flexion cicatrical contractures have been completely eliminated. Long-term results were followed in 17 patients. No recidivations were noted.
