Free fibula donor-site morbidity: the Mayo experience with 100 consecutive harvests.

abstract：:Promoting neurological recovery requires strategies that simultaneously provide protection to injured neurons and increase the numbers of neurons that extend axons while inducing more rapid and extensive axon regeneration across long nerve gaps. An agent that facilitates the speed and success of reinnervation will hav...
