Why do get this surgery?
What does the surgeon do in the surgery?
Hand tendon repair reconnects severed tendons using microsurgery, often after cuts or crush injuries. Surgeons employ early motion protocols to prevent adhesions, restoring dexterity. Zone-specific techniques (e.g., Kleinert splinting) optimize glide and strength.
Precision suturing and postoperative splinting minimize complications, making it vital for preserving hand function.
