Myofascial force transmission and tendon transfer for patients suffering from spastic paresis: A review and some new observations

Abstract The current rationale of clinical practice in spastic tendon transfer surgery is based on four assumptions: (1) changes in muscle fiber length (serial number of sarcomeres) determine the available length range and joint excursion, (2) muscle cross-sectional area determines the maximal force...
