title: [Peripheral nerve regeneration by autografts in rats. II. Electrophysiological assessment].
abstract: Peripheral nerves repairing using freeze-thawed skeletal muscle autografts were compared to conventional nerve grafts with respect to their electrical properties. It was found that the amplitude and distal latency of action potentials in both groups were not significantly different 3 and 6 months after the operation. These observations support the thesis that peripheral nerve repair by freeze-thawed autogenous muscle grafts may have a significant role in the reconstruction of injured nerves.
