A Novel Flexor Tendon Reconstruction Technique in Children: A Potential Solution for a Rare Problem
Listen to this summary
The authors aimed to evaluate the biomechanical properties of a novel palmaris longus-flexor digitorum profundus-anchor (PL-FDP-A) construct for distal tendon graft fixation in pediatric 2-stage flexor tendon reconstruction. Their findings indicate that this technique provides adequate stability for early active mobilization, with failure primarily occurring through anchor pullout. The results suggest that the PL-FDP-A construct could be a viable solution for the challenges associated with tendon fixation in children.
