Such tissue defects can occur as a result of a number of injuries. If the nerve layers’ continuity is maintained or restored after being severed\, these layers begin to serve as regenerative tunnels for the regenerating axons. Otherwise\, nerve regeneration can become very challenging or virtually impossible. In the absence of a nerve defect or in case of very small defects\, the nerve needs to be sutured end-to-end. In the case of larger defects\, however\, a nerve graft is needed\, and autografting is the golden standard. Yet\, it is associated with problems such as limited donor sites\, the need for additional surgery\, possible scarring\, donor site morbidity\, neuroma formation at the donor site\, as well as the possibility of graft mismatch. In the case of allo- or xenografts\, as it is known\, there is a risk of graft rejection\, thus immunosuppression is needed which poses the patient under substantial infection-related risks. \nπŸ“– Read more about this and other AESA-funded R&D projects:\nπŸ”— \nLinkedIn\nπŸ“ Registration link:\nπŸ”— \nDEVELOPMENT OF METHODS FOR PERIPHERAL NERVE REGENERATION APPROACHES Β· Zoom Β· Luma URL:https://aesa.org/event/last-day-of-aesa-mentorship-program/ CATEGORIES:Mixer,Networking,Workshop ATTACH;FMTTYPE=image/png:https://aesa.org/wp-content/uploads/2024/06/DiveintotheFuture_20240530_214116_0002.png END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
