Abstract

Tendon transfers are used in management of winged scapula refractory to conservative treatment to improve scapula function and reestablish adequate shoulder biomechanics. There are different techniques described for these tendon transfers. In this article we reviewed these techniques, in addition, we illustrate with videos on cadavers the following techniques: triple tendon transfer for trapezius paralysis and pectoralis mayor tendon transfer to scapula for serratus anterior disfunction.
