This paper addresses several basic issues that are important for the experimental model
design to investigate peripheral nerve regeneration. First, the importance of carrying out …

The last 15 years have seen a growing interest regarding a technique for nerve repair
named end-to-side (terminolateral) neurorrhaphy. This technique is based on the concept …

The Sciatic Functional Index (SFI) is a quite useful tool for the evaluation of functional
recovery of the sciatic nerve of rats in a number of experimental injuries and treatments …

Purpose To analyze the comparative safety and efficacy of two techniques of corneal
neurotization (CN)(direct corneal neurotization [DCN] vs indirect corneal neurotization [ICN]) …

The long history of regeneration nerve research indicates many clinical problems with
surgical reconstruction to be resolved. One of the promising surgical techniques in specific …

Background: Over the past decade, a growing body of literature has emerged supporting the
use of end-to-side (terminolateral) neurorrhaphy for the treatment of selected peripheral …

Abstract End-to-side (ETS) nerve repair, in which the distal stump of a transected nerve is
coapted to the side of an uninjured donor nerve, offers a technique for repair of peripheral …

Peripheral nerve injury (PNI) is a serious public health problem that is linked with motor,
sensory and autonomic deficits. Given the fact that this type of disorder leads to a decreased …

End‐to‐side neurorrhaphy constitutes an interesting option to regain nerve function after
damage in selected cases, in which conventional techniques are not feasible. In the last …

End-to-side (ETS) nerve repair, in which the distal stump of a transected nerve is coapted to
the side of an uninjured donor nerve, has been suggested as a technique for repair of …
