Use of a bioresorbable polylactide sheet (OrthoWrap Bioresorbable sheet) on tendon healing after extensor tendon repair: a controlled clinical trial.

Background: Adhesion formation poses a significant challenge for both patients and hand surgeons following tendon repair. One common strategy to prevent adhesion formation is the use of physical barriers. This study aimed to compare the outcomes of extensor tendon repair with and without the application of the OrthoWrap bioresorbable Sheet, specifically in terms of adhesion prevention.
