چکیده
Introduction: Radial nerve palsy, a common peripheral injury, significantly impacts the quality of life affected individuals. The standard treatment is tendon transfer, but optimal choice transfers remains subject ongoing debate. This study aimed to evaluate radial palsy through transfer with flexor carpi radialis combination in Bangladeshi population. Methods: observational was conducted over 18 weeks at Department Orthopedic Surgery 3 medical college hospitals Bangladesh. Forty adult patients were selected based on specific inclusion criteria. Participants evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively using Disabilities Arm, Shoulder, Hand (DASH) score. Complications also recorded. Results: majority participants male (77.5%) had right-sided injuries (72.5%). most cause injury humerus shaft (55.0%). site middle third (67.50%). Postoperatively, 85.0% achieved an "Excellent" grade. minimal, 90% experiencing no complications. Conclusions: Tendon appears be effective for significant improvements DASH scores minimal Further research needed confirm these findings compare effectiveness this other combinations.

متن کاملLesions of the flexor carpi radialis tendon and sheath causing pain at the wrist.
Pain at the front of the radial side of the wrist or at the base of the thenar eminence is a common complaint. Conditions such as osteoarthritis of the first carpo-metacarpal joint, ununited fractures of the scaphoid bone and ganglia at the front of the wrist are easily recognised but the diagnosis may not be straightforward. Since 1952 we have operated on twelve patients who had pain from vari...
