Merritt, MD When an injured tendon is placed in 15 to 20 less relative motion than adjacent tendons from a shared muscle (extensor or flexor), it will experience markedly less force than adjacent tendons, regardless of the position from full extension to full flexion (minus the 15 to 20 difference at the MCP joint). With long extensor repair in zones IV to VII, all extensors function like the single unit extensor digitorum communis muscle. Independent extensors recover equally well as the common extensors when plac...
