[Reconstruction of flexor tendons following prognostically unfavorable injuries in the "no man's land" of the hand using transplantation of a tendon-tendon sheath unit--preliminary report].
For the reconstruction of injured flexor tendons with a bad prognosis in "no man's land", the authors used a composite flexor tendon graft from the foot. In one case, first in the literature, they carried out the transplantation with microvessel anastomosis. They modified the method proposed by Chacha in 1974 in several ways. On the basis of their favourable results they propose the method for reconstruction after flexor tendon injuries with a poor prognosis.
