Abstract: Early application of movement into a rehabilitation program after primary and secondary reconstruction of tendons is an important factor in restitution of functions of individual fingers and the whole hand [1-3]. During the early period after an operation when a risk of complications (including breaking the structures anastomosis) is high, it is suggested that tenodesis exercises should be introduced. They release tendons glide without any necessity of their active load. The phenomenon of tenodesis in relation to fingers flexors tendons relies on active movements of the wrist in the sagittal plane that result in both passive movements in joints and a passive glide of tendons within the fingers.
