An innovative treatment concept for free flap reconstruction of complex central chest wall defects--the cephalic-thoraco-acromial (CTA) loop.

abstract：:This article studies the utilization of the end-to-side neurorrhaphy concept in the prevention and treatment of painful neuromas. A total of 20 rats were divided into 2 groups (10 rats per group). In group A, the tibial nerve was divided and left lying in the subcutaneous tissue. In group B, the cut ends of the tibial...
