Abstract:
Injury of peripheral nerve is a so common complication in trauma, that it is important to improve regeneration to recover the function of peripheral nerve. This paper has reviewed the pathology after injury of peripheral nerve, condition of successful regeneration of peripheral nerve, experiment and clinical study of electrical stimulation promoting regeneration of peripheral nerve and the possible mechanism. The effect of electrical stimulation on promoting regeneration of peripheral nerve has been gradually accredited. However, further study is still needed to discover the many unknown field.
