title: Management of peripheral nerve injuries.
abstract: The choice between repair or reconstruction in the management of nerve injury, and the determination on timing and the type of neurorrhaphy technique are clinical decisions that should be based on thorough understanding of the pathophysiology of nerve injury, the physiology of nerve healing, and the anatomy of peripheral nerves. The formulation of a treatment plan should be individualized.
