Flexor tendon retrieval in Zone 2 using the push-pull technique

Flexor zone 2 tendon injuries often present with tendon retraction into the palm. This is particularly the case when the injury occurs with the hand clenched over a sharp object such as a knife. To minimize tendon sheath and annular pulley injury, multiple techniques have been described for flexor tendon retrieval using dental wire,1 paediatric feeding tubes2,3 and skin hooks.
