From the Department of Orthopaedic Surgery, Monklands Hospital, Airdrie, Scotland, UK

Correspondence: Mr W.T. Jarvis MD, FRCS, Specialist Registrar in Orthopaedics, Dept of Orthopaedic Surgery, Monklands Hospital, Flat 2, 10 Dorset Square, Glasgow G3 7LL, Scotland, UK. Tel.: +79 6800 6454; fax: +870 163 1607; E-mail: winjarvis{at}hotmail.com

The use of a Fogarty catheter to dilate a constricted flexor sheath is described. This relatively atraumatic method of dilating a constricted flexor sheath, may some times allow a one-stage rather than a two-stage tendon graft procedure.
