Atraumatic harvesting of the sural nerve

Endoscopically Assisted Sural Nerve Harvest in Infants

“…Sural nerve harvest using multiple, small transverse incisions yields better donor site scars, but the limited visualization makes the nerve vulnerable to injury. 7 Similarly, the use of a tendon stripper and a short incision at the ankle can result in injury to the nerve graft [8][9][10][11] and does not allow visualization of potentially useful branches.…”
