Results of nerve grafting in severe soft tissue injuries. 1984

W C Beazley, and M A Milek, and B H Reiss

Nerve grafting was performed in a series of patients, 81% of whom had associated severe soft tissue injuries in the area in which nerve grafting was done. Other factors that have been shown to have an adverse effect on nerve grafting results were analyzed and were not thought to be major factors influencing results. Results were worse than those of previous reports in which the initial injury was less severe. The initial soft tissue injury is very important in predicting how well a nerve graft will function. Nerve grafting is a valuable procedure even in the face of severe soft tissue injuries, since it alone can restore protective sensation.
