Nerve Repair and Nerve Grafting
Hand Clinics, 2016Direct repair and nerve autografting are primary options in the treatment of upper extremity peripheral nerve injuries. Deciding between these surgical options depends on the mechanism of injury, time since injury, and length of repair defect. Principles of direct repair and nerve autografting are reviewed.

Nerve repair, grafting, and nerve transfers
Clinics in Plastic Surgery, 2003Advances in the field of peripheral nerve surgery have increased our understanding of the complex cellular and molecular events involved in nerve injury and repair. Application of these important discoveries has led to important developments in the techniques of nerve repair, nerve grafting, nerve allografts, end-to-side repairs, and nerve-to-nerve ...

Distal nerve entrapment following nerve repair
British Journal of Plastic Surgery, 1998Failure of nerve repair or poor functional outcome after reconstruction can be influenced by various causes. Besides improper microsurgical technique, fascicular malalignment and unphysiologic tension, we found in our clinical series that a subclinical nerve compression distal to the repair site can seriously impair regeneration.

Surgical Clinics of North America, 1972
Digital nerve injuries, which are very common, are best treated by careful debridement and microsurgical repair with fine suture material. Protective sensation can uniformly be restored and a two point discrimination of under 6 mm. can be expected in 60 per cent of patients.

Nerve Tubes for Peripheral Nerve Repair
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2009The concept of the nerve tube has been a major topic of research in the field of peripheral nerve regeneration for more than 25 years. The first nerve tubes are currently available for clinical use. This article gives an overview of the experimental and clinical data on nerve tubes for peripheral nerve repair and critically analyzes the data on which ...

Successful nerve repair requires an appropriate assessment of the injury combined with a functional examination that may need to be repeated over time. In this chapter, the authors review the key principles of nerve repair in order to maximize functional outcomes in patients with devastating nerve injuries.

Facial Nerve Repair Techniques
Acta Otorrinolaringologica (English Edition), 2007Post-operative facial function was analyzed in 14 patients undergoing different techniques for facial nerve repair.The aetiology of facial paralysis included vestibular schwannomas, facial schwannomas, cranioencephalic trauma, and iatrogenic lesions.The mean interval between paralysis and reconstruction surgery was 6 months, although in 2 cases it ...

Patients with peripheral nerve injuries face unpredictable and often suboptimal functional outcome, even following standard microsurgical nerve repair. The challenge of improving such outcomes following nerve surgical procedures has interested many research teams, in both clinical and fundamental fields.

Facial Nerve Repair: A Retrospective Review
Facial Plastic Surgery, 2000The purpose of this article is to review a large series of patients evaluated for disorders of the facial nerve in order to assess the indications for surgery, the timing of surgery, the techniques of nerve repair, and to better define those factors associated with a favorable outcome.A retrospective review of patients undergoing facial nerve repair ...
