Muscle Flap Mass Preservation by Sensory Reinnervation with End-to-Side Neurorrhaphy: An Experimental Study in Rats

ABSTRACT The purpose of this study was to determine whether sensory reinnervation with end-to-side neurorrhaphy preserves muscle mass in pedicled muscle flaps. A new muscle flap model innervated by the common peroneal nerve (CPN) was tested in rats. Animals were divided into group 1 (CPN transected...
