[Alloplasty of nerves using cryopreserved grafts subjected to total epineurectomy (experimental-clinical study)]

It was demonstrated in experiments on 24 dogs that microsurgical epineurectomy of a cryopreserved peripheral nerve improves the results of neuroplasty due to acceleration and increase of graft revascularization. From application of the developed method in 12 patients it was concluded that microsurgical alloneuroplasty with a cryopreserved graft may be the method of choice in cases in which autoplasty cannot be performed.
