March 2015

From the *Clinic of Hand, Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery, Burn Center, BG Trauma Center, Ludwigshafen; †Clinic for Neurology, Ortenau Klinikum Lahr-Ettenheim, Lahr; and ‡Clinic of Plastic and Hand Surgery, University Medical Center Freiburg, Freiburg, Germany.

Introduction: Peripheral nerve regeneration over longer distances through conduits is limited. In the presented study, critical size nerve gap bridging with a poly-DL-lactide-ε-caprolactone (PLC) conduit was combined with application of C3 toxin to facilitate axonal sprouting.

Materials And Methods: The PLC filled with fibrin (n = 10) and fibrin gel loaded with 1-μg C3-C2I and 2-μg C2II (n = 10) were compared to autologous nerve grafts (n = 10) in a 15-mm sciatic nerve gap lesion model of the rat.
