Abstract
Pull-out suture fixation is widely used to fix zone one flexor tendon injuries. The original technique of Bunnell generally has good results. However, in some cases, it may result in complications, including nail deformity and infection. The all-inside techniques for fixation of the tendon at this zone cannot totally replace the Pull-out technique. In this article, we propose a modification of the pull-out technique, which can reduce the complications and report the results of our patients' series.
