AO Trauma Hand NA: Tendon Transfers

Anatomical relationships between the skeleton and its surrounding soft tissue uniquely influence function, and these intimate relationships acquire even greater importance in the hand and wrist. The location of the tendons and neurovascular structures render them susceptible to injury or compression at the same time the bone is injured or even in isolation. Tendons can also rupture as a sequela of trauma or of surgery. This webinar will focus on strategies for optimal, timely management of these nerve and tendon injuries, by using the technique of tendon transfers to positively influence patient outcomes and recovery. Upon completion, participants should be able to: Analyze injuries to the major nerves of the upper limb Analyze tendon injuries after skeletal trauma and after surgery around the wrist List suitable adjuvant electrical studies to help plan surgical strategy Identify indicators of improved outcomes pre-operatively Address each major nerve injury and tendon rupture with techniques that will be demonstrated Moderator: Chaitanya Mudgal, MD, MS (Ortho), MCh Department of Orthopedics Massachusetts General Hospital Chairman, AO NA Hand Education Committee Associate Professor, Orthopedic Surgery, Harvard Medical School Boston, Massachusetts Faculty: Charles Cassidy, MD Henry H.
