MECHANICAL HAND FOR FOREARM CINEPLASTY.

Abstract

A modern mechanical hand for dual forearm cineplasties is described. The design is a modification of the Model 3 Dorrance Hand that retains the features of the hand (such as the cam lock in the closed position) while adapting it to an amputee with dorsal and ventral forearm cineplasty tunnels.
