Injuries to Peripheral Nerves

چکیده
the proximal to the distal segment. These cells may be formed by the breaking up of the myelon sheath, and it is asserted by some of the exponents of centrifugal regeneration that it is by means of these newly-organized myelon fragments that a chemical attraction is created which enables the new axons to find their way into the partly obliterated distal cord. All this doubt and speculation makes the subject one of the greatest interest, and there can be

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...

متن کاملIntroduction of a New Suture Method in Repair of Peripheral Nerves Injured with a Sharp Mechanism
Background: The standard method for repair of an injured peripheal nerve is epineural repair with separate sutures. Herein we describe a method in which the nerve is sutured with continous sutures. In fact this method has not been utilized for nerve repair previously and our purpose was to compare it to the standard method. If it proved to be successful it would replace the standard method in...
متن کاملPenetrating injuries to the nerves of the lower extremity: principles of diagnosis and treatment.
Background. Lower extremity nerve injuries caused by wounds are often not noticed immediately after trauma. The purpose of this article was to analyze the localization of penetrating injuries to the nerves, the mechanism and extent of the lesions, and the microsurgical techniques used. The diagnostic and therapeutic basics in penetrating injuries of lower extremity nerves are also described. Ma...
متن کاملThe significance of longitudinal excursion in peripheral nerves.
It has been shown that nerves do, in fact, have a longitudinal excursion. This excursion is accentuated during adjacent joint motion. It is important for the surgeon treating nerve injuries, compression lesions, and adherent nerves to realize that the restoration of the longitudinal excursion of the peripheral nerves must be accomplished in order to effectively treat the inciting lesion.
متن کاملPeripheral nerve injuries: a retrospective survey of 456 cases.
This 16-year retrospective study reports the data on 456 consecutive patients with 557 peripheral nerve injuries (PNIs) between 1989 and 2004. Most patients were men (74%) and the mean age was 32.4 years. In 83% of cases the PNIs were isolated; combined lesions most commonly involved the ulnar and median nerves. Upper-limb PNIs occurred in 73.5% of cases; the ulnar nerve was most often injured,...
