title: [Kleinert's primary flexor tendon repair in children (author's transl)].
abstract: The essential points of the Kleinert technique of primary suture of the flexor tendons are briefly laid out. Even although the success of this method depends especially on the co-operation of the patient, we have been able to obtain very good results, particularly in children. Here, too, we used dynamic splinting in the form of a whole-arm splint, and in the case of very small children, the mother was instructed in the therapy.
