We present a patient with a history of revision trigger release who experienced post-surgery limitation of active flexion as a result of bowstringing of the flexor tendons and required a double loop pulley reconstruction using a palmaris longus autograft.

Key Words: pulley reconstruction • bowstringing • flexor tendons
