[Anatomical basis of optimal suturing on the cross-striated skeletal muscle]

Surgical procedure of the transversely cut skeletal muscle joining, taking into account the location of stump and the motor nerve stumps on the cut off, was proposed, based on the microsurgical anatomy of the motor nerves fragments of skeletal muscles data and on personal experience of the upper extremity large segments replantation and musculocutaneous flaps transplantation. The useful restoration of the muscle motor activity, estimated clinically and instrumentally, was obtained in more than 83% of observations.
