Abstract:
» Bilateral, simultaneous same-tendon injuries of the upper extremity are rarely encountered, yet their unique complexity poses a substantial challenge for treating orthopaedic surgeons.» In general, extremities with more tendon retraction should be repaired acutely while contralateral injuries can be treated in a staged or simultaneous manner depending on injury morphology, location, and anticipated functional impairment.» Combinations of accelerated and conventional rehabilitation protocols can be used for individual extremities to minimize the length of functional impairment.
