Direct fascicular repair and interfascicular nerve grafting of median and ulnar nerves in the rhesus monkey.
The authors did direct fascicular suturing and interfasicular nerve graft repairs for gaps in the median and ulnar nerves in rhesus monkeys. They found that the fascicular type of repair, with or without the use of a graft, routinely produced good results in these animals.
