A tourniquet was used and inflated to approximately 250 mm of mercury after exsanguination of the

hand. Tendons were noted to be completely intact. The nerve was then isolated in both proximal and distal ends and with the use of an operating microscope 9-0 sutures were placed in the epineurium, six through and through sutures placed. When this was finished the nerve was checked for congruity. It should be stated that the nerve was trimmed and the fascicles were lined up end to end as best as possible. After this, copious irrigation was undertaken and bleeders were cauterized. The skin was then closed with 5-0 nylon and a sterile dressing was applied. The tourniquet was let down and a clam digger splint with a rubber band through the nail was placed to ensure range of motion.
