RESTORATION OF TENDONS, USING ELECTRIC WELDING — A NEW STEP IN TRAUMATOLOGY

Results of experimental investigations of operative treatment of the tendons traumatic injury, using additional to apparatus Patonmed—300 device of our construction, which have helped to perform a high—frequency welding of tendons, were presented. The advantages of a high frequency welding over existing operative procedures, using suture materials, were proved. Results of experimental investigations witness possibility to achieve improvement in the operative treatment result for traumatic injury of carpal tendons in clinical environment.
