Abstract:
The investigation of both dynamics and peculiarities of restoration of sensitive functions of radial, ulnar and median nerves was performed in terms of dependence upon the time after trauma in 76 patients which underwent replantation of large upper limbs' segments associated with traumatic amputation. Some delay behind was revealed in restoration of ulnar nerve's sensitive function during the second and the third half-years after operation as compared with radial and median nerves' functions. These differences disappeared one and a half-two years after trauma. It is necessary to take this into consideration. In of rehabilitation on the patients either with new traumas or after replantation of large segments of upper limbs.
