Abstract
Application of constant tension to elongate tissue has been shown to be beneficial. A dynamic splint was used to achieve tissue creep and full elbow extension. Use of a static splint on the contralateral elbow did not allow elbow extension. This case report demonstrates for this patient the superiority of a dynamic elbow extension splint over a static splint when used to correct progressive loss of elbow range of motion.
