Pulley reconstruction using palmaris longus autograft after repeat trigger release
J Hand Surg Br.
2006 Jun.
Abstract
We present a patient with a history of revision trigger release who experienced post-surgery limitation of active flexion as a result of bowstringing of the flexor tendons and required a double loop pulley reconstruction using a palmaris longus autograft.
