The standard transfers for radial nerve palsy involve the pronator teres to the extensor carpi radialis brevis for central line of pull wrist extension. To power the extensor digitorum communis, the choice is between the flexor carpi radialis and the flexor carpi ulnaris. In a patient who needs power in throwing and needs to generate ulnarly directed flexion, it is important to preserve the flexor carpi ulnaris function; therefore, the flexor carpi radialis is the better choice. Furthermore, the thumb extension deficit should be corrected and the palmaris longus makes a good choice.
