Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Purpose There is a general consensus in the literature regarding the excellent outcomes achieved with the Oberlin procedure for the treatment of upper brachial plexus injuries (C5–C6 and/or C7) in restoring elbow flexion. However, some limitations exist when this procedure is performed long after the initial trauma. An alternative is the free gracilis muscle transfer, using a fascicle...
