The Venous Lymph Node Flap: Concepts, Experimental Evidence, and Potential Clinical Implications.

abstract：BACKGROUND: Injury or compression of a sensory nerve is an under-reported source of disabling pain in the lower limb. It is known that peripheral nerve microsurgeons can reconstruct and rewire injured nerves to relieve chronic pain but this option remains not completely understood and ignored by most orthopaedic surgeo...
