title: [Early mechanical strength of sutures of the finger flexor tendons].
abstract: The authors observed the behaviour of flexor tendon repair under the influence of distracting loads. The methods of Bunnell, Kleinert and Kessler, who use the imbedded suture, were compared with the method of Becker, in which an external cross suture is used. The authors tested their own technique, using transplants or implants of corium, fascia, dura mater and polyester net, internally in the tendons, fastening them with an external cross suture. In the authors' technique the disruption of the tenorrhaphy occurs only with forces much greater than those needed for treatment by controlled mobilization.
