Outcome following repair of a tibial nerve transection resulting from total ankle arthroplasty: A case report [PDF]

open access: goldFoot & Ankle Surgery: Techniques, Reports & Cases
Tibial nerve injury is a rare complication of total ankle arthroplasty (TAA) that has been outlined in the literature. However, the literature is sparse regarding the treatment of iatrogenic tibial nerve injury in situations of delayed diagnosis.

Measurement of tibial nerve excursion during ankle joint dorsiflexion in a weight-bearing position with ultrasound imaging [PDF]

open access: goldJournal of Foot and Ankle Research, 2012
Background The ability of peripheral nerves to stretch and slide is thought to be of paramount importance to maintain ideal neural function. Excursion in peripheral nerves such as the tibial can be measured by analysis of ultrasound images.

Mice Hemizygous for a Pathogenic Mitofusin-2 Allele Exhibit Hind Limb/Foot Gait Deficits and Phenotypic Perturbations in Nerve and Muscle. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Charcot-Marie-Tooth disease type 2A (CMT2A), the most common axonal form of hereditary sensory motor neuropathy, is caused by mutations of mitofusin-2 (MFN2). Mitofusin-2 is a GTPase required for fusion of mitochondrial outer membranes, repair of damaged

A Rabbit Model for Peripheral Nerve Reconstruction Studies Avoiding Automutilation Behavior

open access: yesJournal of Brachial Plexus and Peripheral Nerve Injury, 2022
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.
