Abstract
Data on passive lengthening and active shortening from electrical stimulation to give a total functional excursion are presented. Length-tension characteristics of certain muscles used for transfer are given. Electrical stimulation of the newly transferred tendon gives useful information that is reproducible. This new knowledge obtained at operation is an important adjunct to the traditional techniques and provides helpful information in performing better procedures.Mesh:
