Figure 2. Typical nerve transfers performed in patients with a transhumeral^[42] amputation. A: Pre-operative identification of the stumps of the radial, median and ulnar nerves based on the patients’ reports of paraesthesiae in the expected nerve territories - on palpation of their neuromas. B: Nerve transfers performed during the TMR procedure. From a neuromuscular perspective, when present, the brachialis can be separated into two parts (medial and lateral), providing two additional targets for a nerve transfer.
