GRACILIS MUSCLE TRANSFER TO THE FLEXOR MUSCLE IN THE FOREARM

[Jocelisse's Parents]

That is one of the procedures done to Jocey's arm additional to the wrist capsuledosis and the nails inserted into all her fingers to bend them.

I am looking for outcomes on anyone who has had any of these procedures done to themselves or their children. Usually is done to six years or older kids for the risk involved and last around twelve hours. The kid need to be mentally mature to still on a bed without any kind of movement for at least five days after the surgery. This surgery will allow to get flexion of the fingers.

At home she needs to get a daily aspirin, regular caffeine free diet, encourage fluids, can't have rough play, arm always in sling, need to rest enough and arm elevated on pillows.
