Ulnar nerve repair by the silicone chamber technique. Case report
(1991) In Scandinavian Journal of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery and Hand Surgery 25(1). p.79-82- Abstract
The ulnar nerve of a 21-year old man was repaired at the wrist by a silicone chamber technique 10 days after a traumatic transection. A 3 mm gap was left between the nerve ends inside the chamber. At follow-up three years later, motor and sensory recovery was excellent. At exploration at that time a macroscopically normal nerve was found in the tube.
