• ABSTRACT
    • The extensor mechanism of the fingers, hand, wrist, and forearm is extremely intricate. Disruptions to the extensor system are common and can be associated with poor patient outcomes when not treated appropriately. Although extensor tendon injuries receive much less attention in the literature than flexor tendon injuries do, several recent studies have examined this topic. This article presents an overview of the treatment of extensor tendon injuries, with a focus on recent developments.
