Effect of oblique nerve grafting on peripheral nerve regeneration in rats.

abstract：:Nerve regeneration using artificial biodegradable conduits is of increasing interest. The aim of this study is to evaluate the regeneration and maturation of a nerve after long-term implantation (2 years) of a biodegradable poly-L-lactide/poly-epsilon-caprolactone (PLLA/PCL) copolymeric nerve guide in the sciatic nerv...
