Results of interfascicular autotransplantation in the treatment of traumatic injuries of the median and ulnar nerves

: The results of operation for interfascicular autotransplantation conducted on 50 patients with traumatic injuries to the median and ulnar nerves are analysed. The study confirmed the high efficacy of repairing defects in nerves with autografts and interfascicular apposition of the separate elements of the nerve trunks. The best results were produced with the use of short autografts. At the current stage of the development of the surgical treatment of injuries to the peripheral nerves, microsurgery with interfascicular suture and autotransplantation should be considered the method of choice.
