The authors have transferred the posterior part of the deltoid muscle to the triceps in 21 tetraplegics. A modification of Moberg's technique has been employed utilising a strip of fascia lata reinforced by Dacron sutures to allow rehabilitation after only 3 weeks. Despite limited active extension of the elbow and diminished power, results were considered to be satisfactory by the patients. They benefited from a greater range of movement of the hand, an improved possibility of bearing weight, improvement in the use of wheelchairs and better ability to express their bladder.
