Abstract

Nerve transfer surgery utilizes the redundant and synergistic innervation of intact muscle groups to rehabilitate motor function. This is achieved by transferring functional nerves or fascicles to damaged nerves near the target area, thereby reducing the reinnervation distance and time. The techniques encompass both proximal and distal nerve transfers, customized according to the specific injury. Successful nerve transfer hinges on accurate diagnosis, innovative surgical approaches, and the judicious choice of donor nerves to maximize functional restoration. This study explores nerve transfer strategies and their integration with other procedures, emphasizing their importance in enhancing outcomes in brachial plexus injury management.
