Abstract
Introduction and
Aim of the Work
The hand’s enormous capacity for adaptability has allowed primitive humans to make stone
tools and modern humans to pilot complex aircraft (Bender and Light, 1996).
This is owing to the miraculous accuracy of the fingers in clasping and pinching to
judge both power and space simultaneously (Milford, 1975).
The concept of providing a more equitable distribution of forces acting upon a
disabled limb is the basis of tendon transfers. (Hovius, 1993).
So tendon transfer procedures may prove to be a viable option to restore balance and
function of a disabled hand, with the extreme necessity to focus on specific protocol for
each palsied hand. (Hoard et al., 1995).
The surgeon who attempts reconstruction of the palsied hand must have a precise
knowledge of structural, functional anatomy and current methods of tendon
transplantation, as an important line of treatment at this field. (Riordan, 1987).
The aim of this study is to mention the basics of operative and peri-operative tendon
handling, using the transference techniques in the palsied hand as a field, as well as how
to think systematically to capture the appropriate choice of the transfer, putting in mind
the biomechanical disturbances that occurred.
