[Long-term results of treating injuries to the peripheral nerves of the upper extremity].
The treatment results obtained in 67 secondary "end-to-end" anastomoses of the nerves and the results of 39 free nerve grafts have been analyzed. The precise limit of nerve deficit, with which both methods of treatment give favorable and comparable results, has been tried to determine. It has been demonstrated that when the deficit is up to 2 cm long, immediate anastomosis of the nerve is recommended, and when over 3 cm, only free nerve grafts can give a possibility of a good treatment result.
