Use of long autologous nerve grafts in brachial plexus reconstruction: Factors that affect the outcome

Background: Using grafts directed to distal targets in brachial plexus reconstruction has the advantage over proximal targets of avoiding axonal dispersion. A long graft (more than 10 cm) is needed to reach most distal targets. The objective of this article is to identify factors associated with goo...
