Abstract

Extensor tendons of the hand are prone to injuries due to their superficial location. Complex injuries with loss of tendon and or soft tissue cover require extensive reconstructive plastic surgery. In order to achieve good functional and aesthetic results, extensive soft tissue defects need to be reconstructed simultaneously with extensor tendon reconstruction.
