Correspondence: Hiroshi Yamazaki, MD, Advanced Emergency and Critical Care Center, Shinshu University Hospital, 3-1-1 Asahi, Matsumoto City, Nagano 390–0304, Japan. Tel.: +81 263 37 2659; fax: +81 263 35 8844. E-mail: h-ymzk{at}hsp.md.shinshu-u.ac.jp.

There are only three reports of the surgical outcomes of flexor tendon tenolysis after phalangeal fractures. The fracture type, the time to mobilisation following injury and the time between the injury and tenolysis did not affect the results of tenolysis. The outcome only correlated significantly to the total passive range of motion before tenolysis.

Key Words: flexor tendon adhesion • phalangeal fracture • tenolysis
