    AbstractAmong 3 000 injuries of the hand in 65 children over 10 years, 95 injuries to tendons were found. About a quarter of these were to the extensor tendon. Results from the lengemann-suture are good. Tearing of the extensor-tendons in the end-phalanx remains a problem. They are inreasingly being treated conservatively. 20 sutured flexor tendons proximal to the wrist healed well. 32 injuries in "No Man's Land" were sutured primarily, 19 were treated by secondary tendon transplant. 2 primary sutures, 4 transplants were unsuccessful. The primary suture technique of Kleinert is preferred. The healing phase is suported by a hyaluronidase preparation.
