Nerve Transfer Versus Tendon Transfer for Isolated Radial Nerve Palsy. [PDF]
Background: Reconstructive options for high radial nerve injuries include tendon transfer (TT) and nerve transfer (NT), each with distinct advantages and limitations. This prospective, randomized clinical trial compared the outcomes of TT and NT in 21 patients with isolated radial nerve injuries.

Anterior Interosseous Nerve to Ulnar Nerve Transfer: A Systematic Review
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 ...

Elbow flexion recovery after intercostal nerve transfer in elderly patients: a clinical experience report [PDF]
IntroductionRestoration 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 ...

Dual nerve transfer for facial reanimation
The facial nerve is the 7th cranial nerve and carries nerve fibers which control facial movement and expression. This nerve also carries fibers that are involved for the production of taste from the anterior 2/3rd of the tongue and tears from the ...

Nerve transfer with 3D-printed branch nerve conduits
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.

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

Outcome of Oberlin II versus Intercostal Nerve to Musculocutaneous Nerve Transfer Procedure for Elbow Flexion in Adult Brachial Plexus Injury [PDF]
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.

Nerve transfer in brachial plexus traction injuries [PDF]
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 ...
