Our purpose was to evaluate the functional outcome in tetraplegic patients who underwent biceps-to-triceps transfer surgery according to Zancolli\u2019s modified technique. Methods: This is a retrospective study of 6 biceps-to-triceps transfers using Zancolli\u2019s modified technique in 4 patients. Mean follow-up was 45 months. We evaluated each patient\u2019s DASH (Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand) score before surgery and 12 months later. Results: In the 6 arms that underwent surgery, full and active elbow extension against gravity at 12 months after surgery was achieved. The mean DASH score was 73.2 preoperatively and 20.8 twelve months postoperatively. One complication occurred. One patient reported loss of elbow flexion preventing thigh lift for transfers. This was resolved with a program of rehabilitation and specific muscle strengthening Conclusions: Zancolli\u2019s modified technique is simple and effective, with few complications, whereby we can provide more autonomy for the tetraplegic patient.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1177\/1558944716646764","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2016,5,6]],"date-time":"2016-05-06T15:22:26Z","timestamp":1462548146000},"page":"85-90","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1177\/sage-journals-update-policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":18,"title":["Biceps
