Abstract:
Objective To design a new animal model for end-to-side anastomosis of peripheral nerves and analyze the efficiency. Methods The experiment involved 28 Wistar rats,of which the left legs were set as experimental group and the right ones as control group based on mode of nerve anastomosis.In experimental group,the tibial nerves were cut off for anastomosis of the proximal end of the tibial nerves with the distolateral side of the common peroneal nerve.While in control group,the common peroneal nerves were cut off to anostmose the distal end of the peroneal nerve with the distolateral side of the tibial nerves.Electrophysiological examination was done three months later to observe and compare wave amplitude,latent period and maximal wave amplitude at set stimulus volume in both groups and compare the fiber number at distal and proximal ends of the common peroneal nerves. Results There was no significant statistical difference in regard of amplitude,latent period and maximal wave amplitude in both groups.However,the fiber number at distal end of the stoma was much more than that at proximal end in the experimental group,with statistical difference(P
