Nerve grafting in peripheral nerve injuries
Acta chirurgica Iugoslavica, 2003 Autologous nerve grafting is the most commnly used operative technique in delayed primary, or secondary nerve repair after the peripheral nerve injuries. The aim of this procedure is to overcome nerve gaps that results from the injury itself, fibrous and elastic retraction forces, resection of the damaged parts of the nerve, position of the ...

Peripheral nerve injuries [PDF]
The American Journal of Surgery, 1932 Nerve injuries caused by medical interventions (Iatrogenic lesions) can complicate procedures and affect any part of the peripheral nervous system. Available data is fragmentary and little information is accessible on the overall incidence of iatrogenic nerve lesions that ranges from 1.5 to 15%.[1, 2] Major drawbacks are the limited number of patients ...

DXM-TransFuse U-net: Dual Cross-Modal Transformer Fusion U-net for Automated Nerve Identification [PDF]
Computerized Medical Imaging and Graphics, 2022-07-01, Volume 99,
Article 102090, 2022 Accurate nerve identification is critical during surgical procedures for preventing any damages to nerve tissues. Nerve injuries can lead to long-term detrimental effects for patients as well as financial overburdens. In this study, we develop a deep-learning network framework using the U-Net architecture with a Transformer block based fusion module at
