Sensory re-education after median nerve lesions. 1976

C B Parry, and M Salter

Technique for re-educating sensory function after median nerve lesions at the wrist is described. Results of re-education of Twenty-three patients are presented. The functional results are good and belie the traditional view of sensory function after nerve suture. Recent advances in sensory neuro-physiology are discussed which may explain the successes of this technique.

UI	MeSH Term	Description	Entries
D008475	Median Nerve	A major nerve of the upper extremity. In humans, the fibers of the median nerve originate in the lower cervical and upper thoracic spinal cord (usually C6 to T1), travel via the brachial plexus, and supply sensory and motor innervation to parts of the forearm and hand.
