5. Clinical Aspect of Peripheral Nerve Disorders

Surgical Aspect of Facial Nerve Disorders

Facial expression is the essential complementary of the verbal communication between humans. “Face is a window to the heart.” An ancient proverb tells us the importance of facial expression more than anything. When harmonic and symmetric movement of both sides of the face has lost, one is unable to express his emotion by distorted facial movement. This person becomes unwilling to communicate, h...

Antibody testing in peripheral nerve disorders.

The identification of autoantibodies associated with dysimmune neuropathies was a major contribution to the characterization of peripheral nerve disorders, the understanding of their pathophysiology, and the clinical diagnosis of neuropathies. Antibodies directed to GM1, GQ1b, and disyalilated gangliosides, and anti-MAG antibodies are very useful in the diagnosis of acute or chronic motor or se...

Electrodiagnostic Medicine Consultation in Peripheral Nerve Disorders

Nanotechnology for peripheral nerve regeneration

Peripheral nerve injuries (PNI) can lead to lifetime loss of function and disfigurement. Different methods such as conventional allograft procedures and using of biological tubes have problems for damaged peripheral nerves reconstruction. Designed scaffolds with natural and synthetic materials are now widely used in the reconstruction of damaged tissues. Utilization of absorbable and non-absorb...
