Microsurgical Repair of the Facial Nerve
Zentralblatt für Neurochirurgie, 2005To report a series of 18 patients who underwent microsurgical repair of the facial nerve using different techniques and to discuss the indications and results of facial reinnervation procedures.Eighteen patients with post-surgical facial palsy underwent facial reinnervation using different techniques.'These included classic hypoglossal-facial ...

A cut peripheral nerve can be repaired by either suturing the two nerve stumps together directly or by interposing a nerve graft between the two stumps. Several factors such as the patient's age, type of injury, and proximity of the lesion will influence the functional results.

Nerve cuffs for nerve repair and regeneration
2000In the nerve regeneration field, a 'nerve cuff' is commonly understood to mean a tubular conduit that is surgically installed around the proximal and distal stumps of a severed nerve. Such tubulization cuffs are commonly used to contain the regenerating axonal sprouts and orient and guide their elongation toward the distal stump (Fig. 1, 'T-cuff').

Nerve Repair–The Use of Nerve Isolation
Hand, 1970Abstract Our total experience of nerve isolation with millipore or silastic now extends to some seventy-five cases. Our clinical experience leads us to the view that the best results in nerve repair, including incised wounds in the forearm, are likely to accrue from primary isolation of the nerve followed by early secondary nerve repair.

Delayed repair of the ulnar nerve
The Journal of Hand Surgery: British & European Volume, 1985The case of a fifteen-year-old child where the delay between division and successful repair of the ulnar nerve was nine years is presented. This case and a review of the literature emphasise the importance of repairing nerves in children irrespective of the time interval between division and repair.

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: 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 ...

Repair of Lacerated Peripheral Nerves With Nerve Conduits
Techniques in Hand & Upper Extremity Surgery, 2008Peripheral nerve lesions are relatively common injuries encountered by hand surgeons. These injuries are notorious for causing significant and potentially long-standing impairment to hand function. Numerous surgical techniques with varying degrees of success have been described to treat this injury.

Artificial nerve conduits in peripheral‐nerve repair
Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, 2005Injuries to the nervous system are the result of mechanical, thermal, chemical or congenital pathologies and, if function is not restored, they lead to loss of muscle function, pain and impaired sensation. Current treatment modalities essentially coapt the two nerves ends together or place a nerve graft between the cut ends.
