The results of a personal series of 275 flexor tendon repairs in the digits in 235 patients are reviewed. The repair technique is designed to respect the intrinsic vascular anatomy of the flexor tendon eculiar to this region. It involves the placement of sutures laterally and volarwards where the circulation is least interfered with. Males greatly predominated, and the majority of patients were aged between 15 and 34 years. Using 90 degrees as the "normal" range of movement of both the proximal and distal interphalangeal joints, the mean percentage range of movement after repair was 89% of normal for the former joints and 49% for the latter.
回顾了对235例患者275根手指屈肌腱修复的个人系列病例结果。修复技术旨在尊重该区域特有的屈肌腱内在血管解剖结构。它涉及在对循环干扰最小的外侧和掌侧放置缝线。男性占绝大多数，大多数患者年龄在15至34岁之间。将近端和远端指间关节90度作为“正常”活动范围，修复后前者关节的平均活动范围百分比为正常的89%，后者为49%。
