FIELD: medicine.
SUBSTANCE: invention refers to medicine, namely traumatology and orthopaedics. From a dorsal approach, at a level of a proximal phalangeal joint and a proximal phalanx, from both sides of the finger, a tendon-aponeurosis distorsion is mobilised. From a palmar-lateral side, simultaneously from both sides, the tendon-aponeurosis distorsion is transversally notched at a level of the proximal phalanx. The finger is completely unbent to 180° with the mobilised side portions moved backwards to touch external edges of a middle portion of the extensor. The achieved position of the proximal phalangeal joint is fixed with a pin. The touching edges of the side portions, and edges of the middle portion are fixed by tendon sutures. A triangular ligament is recovered.
EFFECT: higher effectiveness of the recovery.
