Model: Sciatic nerve grafting into an acute burn wound
Motor nerve conduction velocity was faster in vascularised than free nerve grafts up to week 24. Regenerated axons appeared earlier and the density of large regenerated axons was greater in the vascularised grafts. The authors suggest preserving the vascular system decreases fibrosis and allows smo…
