At mean follow-up of 57 months, the mean total active motion of the three finger joints including the metacarpophalangeal joint was 128 degrees preoperatively and 229 degrees at final follow up. According to Strickland criteria, the function was excellent for 14 fingers, good for seven fingers and poor for two fingers. The subgroup analysis showed that the results were better in cases of primary surgery, children, and for the index and little fingers. Complications included stiffness of three fingers, and rupture in one finger that was converted to a two-stage tendon reconstruction. We conclude that this technique restores good function in most patients with zone 1 and 2 flexor tendon injuries, in which primary tendon repair has not been performed or was unsuccessful, and where pulley reconstruction is not required.<\/jats:p>\n                  <jats:p>Level of evidence: IV<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1753193417737920","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2017,10,25]],"date-time":"2017-10-25T02:31:42Z","timestamp":1508898702000},"page":"487-493","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":6,"title":["Results of heterodigital flexor digitorum profundus hemi-tendon transfer for 23 flexor tendon injuries in zones 1 or 2"],"prefix":"10.1177","volume":"43","author":[{"given":"Aude","family":"Bommier","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"Universit\u00e9 Paris Diderot, H\u00f4pital Bich\u00e2t, Service d\u2019orthop\u00e9die, Paris, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Duncan","family":"McGuire","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Martin Singer Hand Unit, Groote Schuur Hospital, Cape Town, South Africa"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Patrick","family":"Boyer","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Universit\u00e9 Paris Diderot, H\u00f4pital Bich\u00e2t, Service d\u2019orthop\u00e9die, Paris, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Asan","family":"Rafee","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Trafford General Hospital, Manchester, UK"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Sami","family":"Razali","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Medea Hospital, Algeria"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"Christophe","family":"Oberlin","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"Clinique Mont Louis, Paris, France"}],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"179","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2017,10,24]]},"reference":[{"key":"bibr1-1753193417737920","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.4103\/0970-0358.63944"},{"key":"bibr3-1753193417737920","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1097\/PRS.0b013e318208d28e"},{"key":"bibr4-1753193417737920","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1016\/j.otsr.2015.11.006"},{"key":"bibr5-1753193417737920","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1177\/1753193410366364"},{"key":"bibr6-1753193417737920","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1054\/jhsb.2001.0654"},{"key":"bibr7-1753193417737920","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","unstructured":"Elliot D, Lalonde DH, Tang JB.
