Partial flexor carpi radialis many-tailed transfer for correction of claw fingers.

ABSTRACT

The method described shows, that correction of claw fingers is possible using a portion of the flexor carpi radialis as motor. Usually, this method is indicated, whenever it is desired to do a Palmaris Longus many-tailed transfer in the absence of palmaris longus (e.g. for correction of hyper-mobile claw fingers).
