Variation in nerve autograft length increases fibre misdirection and decreases pruning effectiveness: an experimental study in the rat median nerve.

abstract：:There have been reports that superior cervical ganglionectomy (SCG) is effective as a treatment for cerebral vasospasm following subarachnoid haemorrhage (SAH). On the other hand, denervation supersensitivity is supposed to play an important role in vasospasm. The two accounts contradict each other. To investigate thi...
