Abstract:
We herein report a case of traumatic tibial nerve defect involving the ankle joint. A 16-mm-long defect was observed in a 5-mm-diameter tibial nerve. Two 3-mm-inner-diameter PGA-collagen tubes were transferred to the bifurcated tibial nerve. Satisfactory recovery was achieved at 3 year and 9 months postoperatively.
