    This study introduces a novel one-stage distant nerve grafting technique using microvascular methods to ensure graft viability. This advanced approach is recommended for complex cases where conventional nerve repair poses high risks.

    Area of Science:

    • Neurosurgery
    • Vascular Surgery
    • Regenerative Medicine

    Background:

    • Peripheral nerve injuries often require complex reconstructive strategies.
    • Conventional nerve grafting techniques can be limited by graft necrosis and viability issues.
    • Microvascular techniques offer potential for enhanced tissue transfer and survival.

    Observation:

    • A new method for one-stage distant transfer of living nerve grafts via microvascular techniques is detailed.
    • The development, clinical application, and preliminary results of 2 cases using this technique are presented.
    • The neurovascular bundle is identified as the optimal graft for free transfer due to its inherent blood supply.

    Findings:

    • The described nerve grafting technique prioritizes the viability of the nerve graft.

  • It is indicated for large nerve gaps, scarred recipient beds, or when thick nerve transfer is needed.
  • The procedure requires meticulous execution and is time-intensive, with advantages and disadvantages compared to traditional methods.

    • Implications:

    • This technique offers a viable solution for challenging nerve reconstruction cases.
    • Advances in immunology may play a crucial role in the future development of vascularized nerve grafts.
    • The recommended preoperative and intraoperative steps can be adapted for other microvascular free tissue transfers.
