Repairing a 35-mm-long median nerve defect with a chitosan/PGA artificial nerve graft in the human: a case study.

abstract：:Five young adults between the ages of 16 and 27 years underwent mandibular reconstruction with free vascularized iliac crest bone grafts based on the deep circumflex iliac artery. These were the only patients under age 30 years in a series of over 60 patients undergoing this procedure. In all cases, the ipsilateral cr...
