SUBSTANCE: in case of the suggested method of treating one should isolate extensor's tendon damaged in area of nail phalanx to suture it with a certain suture, the ends of ligature should be directed through oblique canal in nail phalanx to withdraw through the skin and fix them on S-likely curved free end of a needle that fixes the nail phalanx. In case of the present method of therapy it is possible to exclude the pressure upon soft tissues of volar surface of nail phalanx to prevent the development of scar-resulting bedsore and disorder of palpable sensitivity of patient's finger.
