Nerve transfer helps repair brachial plexus injury by increasing cerebral cortical plasticity

, 2014
In the treatment of brachial plexus injury, nerves that are functionally less important are transferred onto the distal ends of damaged crucial nerves to help recover neuromuscular function in the target region.

Unmasking of latent synaptic connections in the cortex of the rat, elicited by a facial nerve transection [PDF]

, 2001
Peripheral nerve injury elicits plastic changes in the cortex, resulting in reorganization of the somatotopic representation maps. These processes begin within minutes after nerve injury, and last for weeks.

Quantitative segmental organization of spinal motoneuron projections to terminal brachial plexus nerves in the rat

Scientific Reports
Although the gross anatomy of the brachial plexus is well described, the segmental organization of spinal motoneurons projecting to individual terminal nerves has not been quantitatively defined.

Robot-assisted Axillary Lymph Node Dissection for Axillary Lymph Node Metastasis in Breast Cancer

Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Global Open
Summary:. Current experience with robotic-assisted axillary lymph node dissection (R-ALND) is limited. Axillary lymph node dissection is essential for patients with pathological N2–3 disease, but conventional open surgery carries a risk of injury to the ...

Determining the Algorithm of Rehabilitation Procedures in Patients with Brachial Plexus Injuries Based on the Prospective Single-Centre Clinical Neurophysiology Studies: Preliminary Results

Applied Sciences
The clinical neurophysiological tests allow us to determine the type, extent, and nature of brachial plexus damage. They are crucial in decision making regarding surgical procedures or conservative treatment. This report aimed to present an algorithm for
