“…29 The technique was first described for nerves in 1873 but it fell into disrepute when poor clinical outcomes were reported. 37 Its adoption by Viterbo in the 1990s [38][39][40][41][42] restored interest in the procedure, especially in the context of regaining function when the proximal nerve stump was unavailable but a healthy neighboring donor nerve could provide axons. 3 The question of whether or not to open an epineurial window in the donor nerve prior to suturing the denervated distal nerve stump was addressed by several surgeons, including Viterbo and Lundborg, with the conclusion that the window was unnecessary.…”

“…It enables traction of the oral commissure in order to create a smile despite the lesion of the buccal branch of the facial nerve. It is also possible to pull the frontal region upward, thus enabling the patient to raise the eyebrows and correcting the defect resulting from lesion of the frontal branch of the facial nerve [ 8 ]. Innervation of the temporalis muscle by the trigeminal nerve has the drawback that for the dynamic outcome to be aesthetically pleasing and symmetrical, the patient must undergo rehabilitation and a learning process, since the facial nerve is responsible for mobilizing the muscles of facial expression on the healthy side.…”

“…Длительность периода регенерации аксонов при проксимальных ранениях периферических нервов -частая причина низкой эффективности восстановления утраченных функций вследствие атрофических изменений мышц дистальных сегментов конечностей [4,5]. Перспективным способом реиннервации дистального сегмента поврежденного нерва является его соединение по типу «конец в бок» с интактным нервом-донором [6][7][8]. Немногочисленные публикации о выполнении данных вмешательств наряду с отсутствием четких представлений об источнике и механизме восстановления волокон нерва-реципиента, состоянии нерва-донора, а также о полноте реиннервации тканей после подобных вмешательств препятствуют широкому внедрению данного способа в хирургическую практику.…”
