AAV gene therapy vectors in the TMJ
Abstract Objectives The goal of this project was to evaluate the use of two adeno‐associated viral vector serotypes, adeno‐associated viral vectors (AAV)‐2 and AAV‐6, approved for and used for gene therapy in humans, for the delivery of therapeutic genes to the temporomandibular joint (TMJ) and the attendant sensory nerves.

Background: Peripheral nerve block (PNB) under echo guidance may not prevent intrafascicular anesthetic injection-induced nerve injury. This study investigated whether unintended needle piercing alone, or the intrafascicular nerve injectant could induce ...

A unique quadrifurcation of the sciatic nerve in the lower leg [PDF]
Sciatic nerve is the largest nerve of the body supplying the entire posterior aspect of the lower limb. Taking its origin from the lumbosacral plexus, the nerve divides into its terminal branches at the superior angle of the popliteal fossa.

Cement burn of the sciatic nerve [PDF]
We present the case of a 63-year-old woman who sustained an acrylic cement burn of the sciatic nerve at hip replacement. She was treated by resection of the damaged segment and grafting. Electron microscopy showed that the nerve was nearly normal 1 cm from the cement margin indicating that this is a safe level for resection.

Clinical importance of anatomical variants of sciatic nerve in relation to the piriformis muscle
Background and aims: The sciatic nerve usually emerges below the Piriformis muscle. Each anatomical variant of sciatic nerve is associated with a specific clinical presentation.

Sciatic Nerve Palsy following Curved Periacetabular Osteotomy
Curved periacetabular osteotomy (CPO) is used for the treatment of dysplastic hips. Previous studies have reported satisfying outcomes and low rate of severe complications associated with this procedure; however, no case of postoperative sciatic nerve ...

Background Although autologous nerve grafting is the gold standard treatment of peripheral nerve injuries, several alternative methods have been developed, including nerve conduits that use supportive cells. However, the seeding efficacy and viability of

A Rabbit Model for Peripheral Nerve Reconstruction Studies Avoiding Automutilation Behavior
Background The rabbit sciatic nerve injury model may represent a valuable alternative for critical gap distance seen in humans but often leads to automutilation. In this study, we modified the complete sciatic nerve injury model for avoiding autophagy.

Sciatic Nerve Injury After Proximal Hamstring Avulsion and Repair
Background: Muscle bellies of the hamstring muscles are intimately associated with the sciatic nerve, putting the sciatic nerve at risk of injury associated with proximal hamstring avulsion.
