AB - Medial nerve and Ulnar nerve palsy are still very common in spite of MDT. While most surgeons are concerned
with the function of the hand, few have paid attention to the aesthetics of it. However 'white-collar' patients
are concerned about the appearance of their hands –besides the function, therefore they would like us to do
something for the muscular wasting which is so common. We propose here a new technique, used for the last
10 years, and demonstrate its results.
Key words: Muscle wasting, silicone implants.
