Abstract: Purpose The ideal number of sutures for epineural nerve repair is still unclear. Increased number of sutures increases secondary damage and inflammation to the nerve tissue, which negatively affects nerve regeneration. When the number of sutures decreases, the strength of the nerve repair site decreases and nerve endings are fringed, which also negatively affects nerve regeneration. Therefore, each additional suture is not only beneficial but also detrimental. The aim of this study was to find out … Show more
