Peripheral nerve injury and axonotmesis: State of the art and recent advances [PDF]
Peripheral nerve lesions are frequent occurrences in both human and animal patients, leading to important physiological and labor complications that affect the quality of life of those who suffer the injury. More severe injuries are often associated with

Peripheral Nerve Injury in Sports
Peripheral nerve injuries in sports are rare. Peripheral nerve injuries in sports are caused by pressure, stretching, or bone fracture. Peripheral nerve injuries are more frequent on upper limbs, and the type of injury is determined by the type of sport.

Nerve grafting in peripheral nerve injuries
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]
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 ...

Volumetric MRI is a promising outcome measure of muscle reinnervation
The development of outcome measures that can track the recovery of reinnervated muscle would benefit the clinical investigation of new therapies which hope to enhance peripheral nerve repair. The primary objective of this study was to assess the validity

Adipose Tissue Uses in Peripheral Nerve Surgery [PDF]
Currently, many different techniques exist for the surgical repair of peripheral nerves. The degree of injury dictates the repair and, depending on the defect or injury of the peripheral nerve, plastic surgeons can perform nerve repairs, grafts, and ...

Characterising cellular and molecular features of human peripheral nerve degeneration
Nerve regeneration is a key biological process in those recovering from neural trauma. From animal models it is known that the regenerative capacity of the peripheral nervous system (PNS) relies heavily on the remarkable ability of Schwann cells to ...

Polycaprolactone/multi-walled carbon nanotube nerve guidance conduits with tunable channels fabricated via novel extrusion-stretching method for peripheral nerve repair [PDF]
Multi-channeled nerve guidance conduit is a prospective way to repair peripheral nerve injury, which is still difficult to be fabricated. A novel extrusion-stretching method was utilized in this study to produce multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs ...
