[The Tsuge suture. Experimental and clinical experiences].
Microangiographic studies in the flexor profundus tendon of the rabbit show the relationship between the gaps in tendon-stumps and tendon adhesions of the suture line. Reasonably low average gaps could be achieved by the Kirchmayr/Kessler-type and by the Tsuge-type of tendon suture, which have both the same principle of fixation: solid anchorage in a set distance from the suture line and axial traction of the thread. Clinical cases show the advantages of the Tsuge suture for flat and oval tendons especially for the flexor superficialis tendon and the extensor apparatus. For distal fixation of tendon sutures to bone, pulley and tendon insertion it has also proven to be a reliable and simple technique.
