title: [Preoperative prognostic assessment of flexor tendon injuries in the no man's land (author's transl)].
abstract: A preoperative prognostic grouping has been worked out for flexor tendon injuries in the no man's land, based on the works of Boyes and Buck-Gramcko. Prognosis of the secondary reconstructive procedures is influenced mostly by the age of the patient, the time elapse from the injury and the type, severity and combination of the hand injury (the so called preoperative state) as it was found in own experiences as well as in the literature. Bearing these aspects in mind, a classification has been worked out, with excellent, good, fair and bad preoperative prognostic values in the flexor tendon injuries, This classification makes the correlation and evaluation of the results more precise in those departments, where the care of the patients requiring hand surgery is performed according to the modern standards. With this grading of prognosis, a more adequate operation can be selected, according to the severity of tendon injury, with better results.
