Treatment of Peripheral Nerve Injury?
Dr. Sachin Mahajan is best neurosurgeons use innovative techniques to treat brachial plexus injuries and other peripheral nerve injuries. To restore your nerve health, we may use one of the following techniques:
Nerve grafting. An injury can cause a gap in a nerve that prevents it from working appropriately. During a nerve graft, your neurosurgeon takes part in a nerve from another area of your body or from a donor and attaches it to the injured nerve. The nerve graft can help restore function in the damaged nerve.
Nerve transfer:For a nerve transfer surgery, your neurosurgeon connects a nearby working nerve to the injured nerve. Over time, the brain will learn how to use the new nerve to perform the functions of the old, injured nerve.
