title: Nerve apportionment in microneural surgery.
abstract: The nerve apportionment technique consists of dissecting out several fascicles of a donor nerve, leaving the remainder intact. This avoids the problem of sensory loss in the distribution of the donor nerve. The technique may be applied either for microneural interfascicular nerve grafting or to provide a recipient area for a sensory nerve from a transferred flap.
