The authors present the methods and outcomes from six institutes where M-Tang repairs with early active flexion exercise are used for zone 2 digital flexor tendon repair. The authors had close to zero repair ruptures, and few digits needed tenolysis. The excellent to good results are generally between 80% and 90%. In the pandemic period, less stringent therapy supervision might have allowed some patients to move too aggressively, with repair ruptures not seen before the pandemic in one institute. In Nantong, Yixing, and Saint John, the rupture incidence is zero to 1%. In Florence and Heidelberg, the rupture incidence was 3%.
