Nerve Grafting

Nerve Grafting is a microsurgical technique of peripheral nerve reconstruction in which a segment of nerve tissue, typically an autograft or less commonly an allograft or synthetic conduit, is interposed between the proximal and distal nerve stumps to bridge a nerve defect when direct, tension-free repair is not feasible and to provide a conduit for axonal regeneration.
