ABSTRACT
Several methods have been reported for reconstruction of the extensor central slip. We describe the successful use of a distally based slip of the flexor digitorum superficialis tendon for the reconstruction of an incompetent central slip of the extensor mechanism. The flexor digitorum superficialis tendon was transferred from volar to dorsal through the base of the middle phalanx and then woven through the extensor tendon over the proximal phalanx. The technique is straightforward and appears to be robust.
