title: [Healing of the severed sciatic nerve in the rabbit : morphological aspects of an optimal nervous repair (author's transl)].
abstract: In best conditions, the severed sciatic nerve in the rabbit as well as in the rat heals by forming new perineural sheaths which facilitate the regeneration of nervous fibers. THis type of nervous repair is first obvious in the proximal stump, later it continues to a lesser extent in the distal stump. Three aspects with a spatio-temporal pattern are described and discussed.
