Purpose: To evaluate three different kinds of neurorrhaphy of the peroneal nerve.
Methods: Eigthy rats were divided into 5 groups. Control: nerve had no intervention. End-to-end (EE): nerve was cut and elongated with a nerve graft with two end-to-end neurorrhaphies. End-to-side (ES): nerve was cut and sutured to the graft with at the lateral side of the nerve. Side-to-end (SE): the nerve was cut and sutured to the graft with end-to-end neurorrhaphy. Denervated: nerve was cut and both endings were buried into the muscle. The evaluation was done by walking track analysis, electrophysiology, body mass, cranial tibial muscle mass, nerve and muscle fibers morphometry.
Results: The EE, ES and SE have the same potential of reinnervation.
Conclusion: There is no functional or histological difference between these different types of neurorrhaphy.

Assessment of median nerve with magnetic resonance neurography in cases with carpal tunnel syndrome and controls.

Carpal tunnel syndrome (CTS) is a common peripheral nerve entrapment disorder that is diagnosed using clinical signs and symptoms and confirmed via nerve conduction studies (NCSs). While NCS is a semi-invasive procedure, magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) is a non-invasive diagnostic tool that detects macroscopic nerve abnormalities and evaluates a patient's surgical or medication treatment options. This study assessed magnetic resonance neurography (MRN)'s diagnostic and grading value by comparing it to electrodiagnostic studies in patients with CTS and healthy individuals.

Background: The prognosis of colorectal cancer (CRC) patients is notably influenced by both inflammation and nutritional status. The prognostic nutritional index (PNI) and systemic inflammatory response index (SIRI) have been reported in prognostic studies of various tumors. However, the efficacy of the combination of the two in predicting the prognosis of CRC patients has not been studied.

Post-traumatic trigeminal neuropathy (PTTN) is a sensory abnormality caused by injury to the trigeminal nerve during orofacial surgery. However, existing analgesics are ineffective against PTTN. Abnormal microglial activation in the caudal part of the spinal trigeminal nucleus caudal part (Sp5C), where the central trigeminal nerve terminals reside, plays an important role in PTTN pathogenesis.

Background: Bifrontal craniotomy is one of the most common surgical approaches for dealing with anterior skull base lesions. However, this procedure occasionally presents complications like anosmia, cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage, infection, and cosmetic problems. Although previous reports suggested various solutions, there remains a need to further refine the procedure to ensure better outcomes.
