Abstract:
Objective To investigate the effect of nerve grafting to enzyme histochemical changes on neurons after brachinal plexus nerve in jury in young rats. Methods Model of C5 resection was set up in 24 18-day-old SD rats. Experimental animals were divided in to two groups, one group for C5 resection, another for nerve grafting in repairing the C5 defection. At 4 weeks postoperatively, cholinesterase (CHE) and acidphosphatase (ACP) histochemical stain of neurons in C5 anterior horn and dorsal root ganglia (DRG) were detected. Results Compared with C5 resection group, bio-activity of CHE of C5 repairing group was statistically higher, and that of ACP was statistically lower. Conclusion Nerve grafting has protective effect on survival of neurons after brachial plexus nerve injury in young rats.
