title: [Functional radial tendon replacement surgery at the Accident Hospital of the occupational association in Hamburg. Indications--technique--results].
abstract: Tendon transpositions serve to restore functions which were lost through an injury of nerves or muscles. At the Department of Hand Surgery and Plastic Surgery at the Berufsgenossenschaftliches Unfallkrankenhaus Hamburg, 116 tendon transpositions were carried out for radial paralysis between 1960 and 1989. The follow-up for 85 patients is presented and the evaluation scheme developed by Haas (1991) further modified and our scoring system compared to others such as Zachary (1946) modified by Neumann and Partecke (1980). The results were good, also when evaluated according to Riordan (1959) and Merle d'Aubigné (1953).
