Kommentar zu "Combined Reconstruction of the Ulnar Nerve after its wide Resection by Nerve Grafting at the Site of the Resection and distal Transfer of the Anterior Interosseus Nerve to the deep Branch of the Ulnar Nerve".

Abstract

The authors present the case of a 46 year old patient who was treated for recurrent neurofibroma of the proximal ulnar nerve by complete resection and primary grafting in combination with transfer of the anterior interosseous nerve (AIN) to the deep motor branch of the ulnar nerve (DMBUN) [1]]. Although motor recovery did not occur, the authors conclude that this approach should always be considered in proximal injuries of the ulnar nerve.
