    AbstractEvaluation and treatment of closed tendon injuries in the athlete is usually fairly straightforward if seen in the acute stages. These usually respond well in most cases to nonoperative treatment; a small percentage require initial operative treatment, however. In most cases, continued participation in sports is possible during treatment as long as protective splinting is allowed.
