The muscle transfer procedure most commonly performed for trapezius paralysis is the Eden-Lange procedure. Trapezius paralysis in this patient is secondary to iatrogenic injury to the spinal accessory nerve during lymph node biopsy. In this procedure, the levator scapulae and rhomboid minor and major muscles are transferred laterally. Pectoralis transfer to the inferior border of the scapula is used as a dynamic transfer for serratus anterior winging.
