Flexor Tendon Avulsion

from The Upper Hand: Chuck & Chris Talk Hand Surgery Hosted by Chuck and Chris

Chuck and Chris have a good discussion on FDP tendon avulsions and repair options. We discuss whether the FDP should always be repaired in the setting of an intact FDS (a great deal of therapy is required and results are rarely excellent) and we discuss how we each repair the FDP. We also reference a few items: 1) Carroll Tendon Pulling Forceps (this allows easy passage through tendon sheath) 2) Tendon weaver (passer). Sharp instrument used for tendon weaves with tendon transfer surgery Subscribe to our newsletter: https://bit.ly/3iHGFpD See www.practicelink.com/theupperhand for more information from our partner on job search and career opportunities.
