Borton DC, Lucas P, Jomha NM, Cross MJ, Slater K. Its direction is similar to that of the abductor pollicis longus, its tendon passing the same groove on the lateral side of the lower end of the radius, to be inserted into the base of the first phalanx of the thumb. The extensor pollicis brevis arises from the ulna distal to the abductor pollicis longus, from the interosseous membrane, and from the dorsal surface of the radius. Drop foot and foot drop are interchangeable terms that illustrate an abnormal neuromuscular disorder, which affects the patient's capacity to lift up the foot at the ankle. Given the complexity of drop foot and its impact on gait biomechanics, these authors offer a primer on the diagnostic workup, and share their thoughts on the potential merits of tendon transfer procedures. The diameter and height of the transfer die should match the diameter and height of the abutment 3 INSERT ABUTMENT TRANSFER DIE Although it is not strictly a complication of this procedure, this study identified a septum separating the abductor pollicis longus tendon from the extensor pollicis brevis tendon within the first dorsal extensor compartment in eight out of 18 patients in which the tendon transfer was carried out. Its deep surface is separated from the lateral plantar vessels and nerves by a thin layer of fascia abutment transfer die with the internal flat(s) of the correspondingly colored non-shouldered impression sleeve prior to snapping it into the impression It is imperative that the correct abutment transfer die be used. The flexor digitorum brevis lies in the middle of the sole of the foot, immediately above the central part of the plantar aponeurosis, with which it is firmly united. Also included is wheelchair repositioning and 3-person lift from bed to chair. This video demonstrates how to safely perform manual transfers using proper body mechanics.
