[Current problems in the microsurgery of peripheral nerves].
Abstract
The experience with 132 surgical interventions on 203 nerves of the upper extremities in 131 patients, experimental findings obtained in monkeys and extremities of corpses enabled the author to discuss some important questions. The author considers the employment of the microsurgery technique to allow to considerably raise the exactness of comparing the bundles in suturing or plasty of the nerves, to decrease the specific weight of "erroneous" (heterotopic or heterogenic) regeneration of the fibres due to possible identification of the corresponding bundles, to improve the quantity of preparing the nerve ends for suturing. It gave better results in suturing the nerves.
