Nov 11th, 2020 - Surgical intervention for zone II high-grade partial flexor tendon lacerations is often required when more than half of the tendon width is torn. Reliable noninvasive tests are critical for optimizing clinical decision making. Our team previously ...

Sep 16th, 2019 - Flexor tendon lacerations are a common and debilitating injury for thousands of Americans annually. Despite this, no study has attempted to estimate the economic impact of these injuries. The objective of this study was to estimate the economic im...

Jul 29th, 2019 - Background Injuries to the flexor tendons of the hand are common. [1] Each specific movement of the hand relies on the finely tuned biomechanical interplay of intrinsic and extrinsic musculotendinous forces. Considering the hand's role in labor, e...

Nov 25th, 2018 - Background Early repair has evolved as the mainstay of treatment for flexor tendon lacerations.[1] In the setting of a failed early repair or conditions in which early repair is not feasible, a delayed reconstruction remains a viable option to res...
