【 摘 要 】

We herein report a case of intractable flexor tenosynovitis. The inflamed synovium was debrided twice because of suspected infectious tenosynovitis. However, it relapsed and caused a soft tissue defect. Reconstruction with a free temporoparietal fascia (TPF) flap was performed. Recurrence has not been detected in the six years after surgery.
