Abstract:
:This report describes sensory reinnervation of muscle receptors in humans. In this study, sensory function was investigated in fourteen patients with brachial plexus injury, whose musculocutaneous nerve was surgically sutured with intercostal nerves for reconstruction of elbow flexion. Tapping the intercostal nerve-reinnervated brachial biceps muscle (IC-biceps) induced somatosensory evoked potentials (IC-biceps SEP) in four patients. Tapping also induced reflex IC-biceps activity in all IC-biceps SEP (+) patients, but not in eight out of nine IC-biceps SEP (-) patients. Results show that muscle afferent fibers in the intercostal nerves reinnervated mechanoreceptors in IC-biceps, and induced both cortical sensory activity and muscle activity that indicated the classical stretch reflex.
