Patient-reported Outcomes Following Intercostal Nerve Transfer to Musculocutaneous Nerve at a Median Follow-up of 3.5 Years

Neurotization of the MCN with ICN in patients with CBPP can restore functional elbow flexion and improve quality of life without adversely affecting respiratory function. Although improvements remain modest, the restored elbow flexion significantly enhances upper limb function, supporting its continued use as a viable treatment option in the management of CBPP.

Abstract

Neurotization of the MCN with ICN in patients with CBPP can restore functional elbow flexion and improve quality of life without adversely affecting respiratory function. Although improvements remain modest, the restored elbow flexion significantly enhances upper limb function, supporting its continued use as a viable treatment option in the management of CBPP.
