title: [Successful surgery of buttonhole deformity of finger via extensor tendon graft after snow (author's transl)].
abstract: Plastic surgery of extensor tendon after Snow for secondary removal of buttonhole deformity yields good results similar to those obtained by the method after Matev while being simpler to perform within a shorter time. However, success of surgery depends decisively on the preoperative free passive mobility of the joints of the finger concerned.
