There is a small group of patients with cerebral palsy who can be benefited by reconstructive surgery on the upper extremity. In cerebral palsy long standing muscle imbalance, which can be improved only by surgical treatment, may prevent a hand from reaching its full potential for function.
This case is a 18 yrs old girl had a flexed wrist, swan neck deformity of the fingers and a clasped thumb. She was treated by surgical measure of the tenodesis of the flexor sublimis tendon at the proximal interphalangeal joints of the index; transference of flexor carpi radialis to abductor pollicis brevis: and myotomy of adductor pollicis.
We obtained very good result without other complication.
