The role of nerve transfers in chronic nerve compression syndromes [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Orthopaedics
Abstract Purpose Compression neuropathy is a common problem that results in impaired axonal conduction, and with time, numbness, tingling and weakness from muscle atrophy. Supercharge reverse end-to-side (SETS) nerve transfers have emerged as a novel approach to augment function in chronic nerve compression syndromes ...
