Abstract

Silicone regeneration chambers prefilled with sodium hyaluronate (HA) gels of different molecular weight (MW) and at different concentrations were used to tubulize the transected rat sciatic nerve. After two weeks, the tissue cables bridging the severed nerve ends within the silicone tubes were examined. Low MW HA gels had no significant effect while high MW HA gels reduced the diameter of the growing bridges.
