Abstract:
The authors reviewed their 10 years of combined experience in the surgical reconstruction of the upper extremities in 170 quadriplegic patients from two spinal cord treatment centers. The authors' current recommendations regarding patient selection are presented, refinements in previously published surgical techniques are defined, and the principles of postoperative care are discussed.
