ABSTRACT
The authors describe two cases of radial paralysis due to interruption in the proximal level, treated by autologous nerve grafting, following anterior transposition. At long-term follow-up, in one case after 12 years, there was good functional recovery, while in the second case there was still no recovery after 2 years. The surgical technique involving anterior transposition of the nerve is described, which in this type of lesion facilitates neurorrhaphy.
