Tendon Transfer

Tendon Transfer Surgery: Restoring Hand & Limb Function

What is Tendon Transfer Surgery?

Tendon Transfer Surgery is a specialized procedure used to restore movement and function in cases where muscles or nerves have been damaged due to nerve palsy, trauma, or congenital conditions. In this surgery, a healthy, working tendon is transferred to take over the function of a damaged or paralyzed tendon, helping patients regain mobility in their hands, fingers, or limbs.

Our Approach to Tendon Transfer Surgery

At Dr. Anubhav Gupta’s practice, we focus on precise surgical techniques, personalized rehabilitation, and long-term functional recovery to ensure the best outcomes.

A thorough clinical assessment and imaging studies help determine the best tendon transfer option.

We use minimally invasive methods where possible, ensuring faster recovery and optimal function.

Each procedure is tailored to the patient’s specific needs, whether for radial, median, or ulnar nerve palsy, post-trauma recovery, or congenital deformities.

A structured physiotherapy and hand therapy program helps regain strength, movement, and coordination.

When is Tendon Transfer Considered?

You may be a candidate for tendon transfer surgery if you have:

  • Nerve Palsy – Loss of movement due to radial, median, or ulnar nerve palsy
  • Traumatic Injury – Tendon damage from accidents, burns, or crush injuries
  • Congenital Conditions – Birth defects affecting muscle and tendon function
  • Failed Previous Surgeries – When other treatments haven't restored proper function
