Abstract
Despite the many advances in the surgical and rehabilitative management of flexor tendon injuries, problems of adhesion, contracture, and rupture continue to limit the restoration of function in a significant number of cases. This article reviews the most frequent complications after flexor tendon injuries. The treatment options for these problems, including the authors' methods of choice, are discussed.
