A passive differential mechanism allows adaptable grasp after tendon transfer surgery

This abstract has open access
Abstract Summary
We use robotic and cadaveric hand preparations to evaluate the efficacy of a novel passive implant mechanism in the ECRL-to-FDP transfer tendon-transfer surgery.Compared with directly suturing the donor to recipient tendons, the implant enables passive differential grasp adaptation between the index and middle fingers.
