Background: There are numerous options available for restoration of wrist and finger extension following radial nerve palsy. The aim of this study is to conduct a systematic review of the effectiveness of nerve transfer for radial nerve palsy. Methods: Electronic literature research of PubMed, Cochrane, Scopus and Lilacs database was conducted in June 2021 using the terms 'Distal nerve transfer' AND 'Radial nerve injury' 'Radial nerve palsy' OR 'Radial nerve paresis' OR 'Median nerve transfer' OR 'wrist extensor' OR 'finger extension' OR 'thumb extension' OR 'wrist motion'. The data extracted included the study details, demographic data, procedure performed and final functional outcome according to the muscle research council scale. Results: A total of 92.59% and 56.52% had satisfactory outcome following distal nerve transfer of median nerve to restore wrist and finger extension respectively. No significant correlation was found between time to injury duration and satisfactory outcomes. Conclusions: Outcomes of nerve transfers are comparable to tendon transfers. Multi-centric studies are needed to compare the results amongst various surgical procedures described. Level of Evidence: Level III (Therapeutic) [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
