Protective distal side-to-side neurorrhaphy in proximal nerve injury-an experimental study with rats.

abstract：:We estimated the volume doubling time (Vd) of the ethyl-nitrosourea-induced rat glioma by serial magnetic resonance imaging, and the results were compared with potential doubling time (Tp) determined immunohistochemically. Vd ranged from 3.3 to 29.2 days (11.3 +/- 7.74) and Tp ranged from 2.3 to 13.3 days (6.81 +/- 3....
