Simultaneous powering of forearm pronation and key pinch in tetraplegia using a single muscle-tendon unit [PDF]

Journal of Hand Surgery (European Volume), 2011
This study clinically assessed the concept that both thumb flexion and forearm pronation can be restored by brachioradialis (BR)-to-flexor pollicis longus (FPL) tendon transfer if the BR is passed dorsal to the radius. Six patients [two women and four men, mean age 32.3 years (SD 4.9, range 23–56)] underwent BR-to-FPL transfer dorsal to the radius and ...

Trapeziometacarpal joint loading during key pinch grip: A cadaver study

Hand Surgery and Rehabilitation, 2022
To our knowledge, no study has directly measured the loads in the trapeziometacarpal joint during an isometric key pinch. The aim of this study was to measure the load acting on the trapeziometacarpal joint for increasingly greater key pinch forces (0.5 kg-1.5 kg). We performed a cadaver study using 10 fresh-frozen, unembalmed adult forearms and hands (
