Jones Tendon Transfer

Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery, 2016
Hallux malleus is a deformity of the great toe. There is a dorsiflexion contracture at the metatarsophalangeal joint and plantar flexion of the interphalangeal joint. The deformity is commonly attributed to muscular imbalances of the various structures acting on the great toe.

Forefoot Tendon Transfers

Foot and Ankle Clinics, 2011
The Girdlestone flexor-to-extensor transfer was first described by Taylor in 1951. He described a technique whereby transferring the toe flexors to the dorsum of the proximal phalanx, one "restores us...

Forefoot Tendon Transfers

Foot and Ankle Clinics, 2014
Flexible forefoot deformities, such as hallux varus, clawed hallux, hammer toes, and angular lesser toe deformities, can be treated effectively with tendon transfers. Based on the presentation of the flexible forefoot deformities, tendon transfers can be used as the primary treatment or as adjuncts to bony procedures when there are components of fixed ...

Biomechanics of Tendon Transfer

Orthopedic Clinics of North America, 1974
There are just two variables that define the mechanical qualities of each muscle. One is its potential for generating tension, and the other is the distance through which tension can be exerted. Tension capability can be increased in a muscle by exercise. There is no way to increase potential for excursion except by reattaching a muscle at surgery with

Principles of Tendon Transfer

Hand Clinics, 2016
Tendon transfers provide a substitute, either temporary or permanent, when function is lost due to neurologic injury in stroke, cerebral palsy or central nervous system lesions, peripheral nerve injuries, or injuries to the musculotendinous unit itself.

Radial Nerve Tendon Transfers

Hand Clinics, 2016
Radial nerve palsy typically occurs as a result of trauma or iatrogenic injury and leads to the loss of wrist extension, finger extension, thumb extension, and a reduction in grip strength. In the absence of nerve recovery, reconstruction of motor function involves tendon transfer surgery. The most common donor tendons include the pronator teres, wrist

Biomechanics of Tendon Transfers

Hand Clinics, 2016
The transfer of tendons in the upper extremity is a powerful technique to restore function to a partially paralyzed hand. The biomechanical principles of muscle tension and tendon excursion dictate motor function both in the native as well as transferred states.

Posterior Tibial Tendon Transfer

Clinics in Podiatric Medicine and Surgery, 2016
When performed correctly with the right patient population, a tibialis posterior muscle/tendon transfer is an effective procedure. Many different methods have been established for fixating the tendon, each of which has its' own indications. Passing through the interosseous membrane is the preferred and recommended method and should be used unless this ...
