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 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 ...

Nerve transfer with 3D-printed branch nerve conduits
Burns and Trauma, 2022 Abstract Background Nerve transfer is an important clinical surgical procedure for nerve repair by the coaptation of a healthy donor nerve to an injured nerve. Usually, nerve transfer is performed in an end-to-end manner, which will lead to functional loss of the donor nerve.

Elbow flexion recovery after intercostal nerve transfer in elderly patients: a clinical experience report [PDF]
Frontiers in SurgeryIntroductionRestoration of elbow flexion is a primary goal in the surgical management of complete traumatic brachial plexus injuries (BPIs). When proximal donor nerves are unavailable, intercostal nerve (ICN) transfer to the musculocutaneous nerve (MCN ...

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.

Outcomes of Nerve Transfers in Peroneal Nerve Palsy
Plastic Surgery, 2022 Background: The objective of this work is to: (i) evaluate the postoperative outcomes after lower extremity nerve transfer (LENT) in patients with peroneal nerve palsy, and (ii) evaluate the patient and surgical factors that best predict successful restoration of ankle dorsiflexion following nerve transfer.
