A six-strand repair for zone II flexor-tendon repair in children younger than 2 years of age has not been reported in the literature because of the small size of the flexor tendon in this very young age group. ⋯ Our six-strand technique is an alternative technique for zone II flexor-tendon repair in children younger than 2 years of age, but the bulky repair site requires a 'profundus only' repair and 'venting' of the pulley system.
