title: [Possibilities of using preserved tendon in hand surgery. Review of the literature].
abstract: Authors review the possibilities of the use of conserved tendon, especially on the field of flexor tendon reconstruction--a problem that can not be considered to be solved entirely. The requirements of the conserved tendon are reviewed, the question of the antigenicity is emphasized and the process of tendon regeneration, using conserved tendon, is described. The various procedures of conservation e.g. freeze drying and different chemical methods are compared and the criteria of the use of conserved tendon are discussed. The possibilities of the use of conserved tendon are mentioned, several questions, requiring further investigations, are posed. A wider use of conserved tendon in the future is recommended.
