Proximal nerve elongation vs nerve grafting in repairing segmental nerve defects in rabbits.

abstract：:The anterolateral thigh (ALT) flap is one of the most commonly used flap worldwide, as both free flap and pedicled local flap. Here, we report the use of a pedicled chimeric sensitive ALT and vastus lateralis muscle (VLM) flap in a patient with a 12 cm × 8 cm contaminated soft tissue defect of the right inguinal regio...
