Philosophy of flexor tendon surgery.

Tendon surgery should be based upon an understanding of tendon healing mechanisms and the fate of tendon grafts. It is also essential to understand those factors that produce adhesions to tendons and how to avoid or minimize such adhesions.

Treatment of a lacrimal bulge in blepharoplasty by repositioning the gland.

We advise a simple solution to the problem of the bulging and ptotoic lacrimal gland in a blepharoplasty. A pocket is dissected above and behind the gland, and the gland is fixed there to the orbital periosteum. This technique safely produces a normal contour in the lateral third of the upper eyelid, where a bulge has been present before.
