| Summary: | Peripheral nerves adjacent to spinal cord injury could help restore sensory motor neurons regeneration
Background and objectives: In people with spinal cord injury we hypothesize that peripheral nerves in the thoracic segment and accessory nerve and supra scapula nerve branches on the back of the patient can be sacrificed to use them to stimulate regeneration in spinal cord injury due to trauma.
Method: To test this hypothesis, we establish a loop shape framework with distal end-to-end anastomosis of peripheral nerves adjacent to cord injury or anastomosis of the distal end of the accessory nerve and supra scapula nerve on the back of the patient and guide growth stimulation balance from the loop shape framework to injured side. We developed this novel technique and tested it in four individuals with complete sensory-motor paralysis as part of the ongoing clinical trial.
Result: Within 6 months time loop shape frame work stimulation novel technique mediated ASIA score improvement from A score to C score in case 1,2 and after 8 months case three can move his hand and foot, Mr. 4 sensory recovered from umbilical level to beneath of knee and the patient move proximal muscle voluntary (3/5).
Conclusion: This novel technique in neurosurgery opens a majestic path to recovery of spinal cord injury and brain regeneration.
