Methods of Evaluation of the Functional Results of Flexor Tendon Repair of the Fingers

A. B. NIELSEN
P. Ø. JENSEN

From the University of Aarhus, Denmark

The methods used by Buck-Gramcko, Kleinert and Tsuge in evaluating the functional results of flexor tendon repair were each applied to assess the functional outcome in sixty-seven fingers where both tendons had been severed in "no man's land". The method of Buck-Gramcko gave the highest rating, and the three methods showed evident differences in the results of evaluation after surgery. The study suggests a need for one standard method of measurement and recording, if a comparison of results after flexor tendon repair is to be of value. We found that the method of Buck-Gramcko incorporated the most essential features in the functional evaluation.
