Severe injuries of the radial nerve treated by sural nerve grafting.
We present six cases of severe injuries of the radial nerve in the arm. These were all treated by autogenous nerve grafting over distances of between 7 and 14 cm up to 26 months after the injury. We describe our results and discuss the place of nerve grafting in the management of these injuries.
