Axonal regeneration and innervation ratio following supercharged end-to-side nerve transfer [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental BiologyIntroductionPeripheral nerve injuries often result in incomplete recovery, particularly after the occurrence of proximal lesions, owing to the extended reinnervation time as well as consequent reductions in the regeneration supportive factors and muscle ...

Combined long nerve allograft and nerve transfer for functional recovery of ulnar nerve: case study with longitudinal clinical and neurodiagnostic follow-up [PDF]
Frontiers in NeuroscienceBackgroundPeripheral nerve injuries involving large gaps (>50 mm) are associated with poor outcomes due to delayed axonal regeneration and limited reconstructive options.

Nerve transfer in brachial plexus traction injuries [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2003 Background. The aim of this study was to analyze the results of nerve transfer to the musculocutaneous and axillary nerves, using some technical modalities such as intercostal, spinal accessory or intraplexal transfer, and on the basis of the results to ...

Anterior Interosseous Nerve to Ulnar Nerve Transfer: A Systematic Review
JPRAS Open, 2022 Background: Ulnar nerve injuries, especially high (proximal forearm) injuries, result in poor functional recovery. Peripheral nerve transfers have recently become a popular technique to augment nerve repairs and reduce the reinnervation distance before ...

Nerve Transfers for Severe Nerve Injury [PDF]
Neurosurgery Clinics of North America, 2009 Nerve transfers are becoming used increasingly for repair of severe nerve injures, especially brachial plexus injuries, where the proximal spinal nerve roots have been avulsed from the spinal cord. The procedure essentially involves the coaptation of a proximal foreign (donor) nerve to the distal denervated (recipient) nerve, so that the latter's end ...

Outcome of Oberlin II versus Intercostal Nerve to Musculocutaneous Nerve Transfer Procedure for Elbow Flexion in Adult Brachial Plexus Injury [PDF]
Journal of Clinical and Diagnostic Research, 2021 Introduction: In the management of brachial plexus injury restoration of elbow flexion has been prioritised over shoulder abduction in pan plexus injury due to scarcity of suitable donor nerve for nerve transfer procedure.
