NERVE AUTOGRAFTING
Gold Standard in setting of a nerve gap“ Expendable” donors: • Sensory: – MABC – LABC – Sural
Non immunogenic ‐• Sensory donors do not support motor regeneration as
well as mixed sensorimotor or pure motor nerves
• Motor: -AIN -PIN -Nerve to gracilis
![Page 7: Νευρικά Αλλομοσχεύματα- Nerve allografts](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/589cb6981a28abbe4a8b6c4b/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
NERVE AUTOGRAFTINGthe “down side”
• Harvest site morbidity (scarring, neuroma formation, loss of donor function) (20-30% with painful donor site, cold
sensitivity, function alteration )• Harvest time/cost• Limited size and length available
![Page 8: Νευρικά Αλλομοσχεύματα- Nerve allografts](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/589cb6981a28abbe4a8b6c4b/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Long Nerve grafts• Long nerve grafts highly
successful in only one series (biceps)• Prognosis is nerve and site-
specific • Axillary nerve graft results
mixed, generally 50% effective • Reduced time to surgery,
shorter grafts associated with improved outcomes
![Page 9: Νευρικά Αλλομοσχεύματα- Nerve allografts](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/589cb6981a28abbe4a8b6c4b/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Vascularized nerve grafts
• Vascular pedicled ulnar nerve graft may offer some advantages in poorly vascularized bed, but no definitive data to support routine use
![Page 10: Νευρικά Αλλομοσχεύματα- Nerve allografts](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/589cb6981a28abbe4a8b6c4b/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
CONDUITS
• Often used for <3cm gaps in small-diameter sensory nerves
• Potentially longer with biologic supplementation • More questions about large mixed nerves– Mackinnon, 2014 :In my practice, nerve conduits have
largely been replaced by acellularized nerve allografts
![Page 11: Νευρικά Αλλομοσχεύματα- Nerve allografts](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/589cb6981a28abbe4a8b6c4b/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
CONDUITSthe “down side”
• Use limited to small gaps;– 34%-57% failure rate >5mm gaps
• cost• lack laminin scaffolding • lack Schwann Cells, which are crucial to axonal
regeneration • Semi-rigid material cannot be used around joints
![Page 12: Νευρικά Αλλομοσχεύματα- Nerve allografts](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/589cb6981a28abbe4a8b6c4b/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
CONDUITSthe “down side”
• decreased concentration of neurotrophic factors associated with larger diameter conduits
![Page 13: Νευρικά Αλλομοσχεύματα- Nerve allografts](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/589cb6981a28abbe4a8b6c4b/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
CONDUITSthe “down side”
• isograft is superior to nerve conduit even with minced nerve • no significant difference in regeneration among motor,
sensory, or mixed minced nerves

NERVE ALLOGRAFTS
• taken from ABO blood type compatible individuals‐– cadaveric – living related donor
• small diameter nerves (avoid necrosis of central aspect of nerve from lack of adequate
revascularization)
![Page 16: Νευρικά Αλλομοσχεύματα- Nerve allografts](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/589cb6981a28abbe4a8b6c4b/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)

• Axonal Growth• Longitudinal revascularization

NERVE ALLOGRAFTS
• Mackinnon, 2014 :”should be reserved for unique patients with irreparable peripheral nerve injuries, which, left untreated, would lead to an essentially nonfunctional limb”
![Page 19: Νευρικά Αλλομοσχεύματα- Nerve allografts](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/589cb6981a28abbe4a8b6c4b/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
ACELLULARIZED NERVE GRAFT • Harvested from cadavers (Motor
nerves ,no branching)• Decellularized with detergents
(Hudson et al.) • Subjected to enzymatic degradation
of CSPGs with chondroitinase (Neubauer et al.)
• Grafts sterilized with gamma irradiation
• Stored at 80 C ‐

ACELLULARIZED NERVE GRAFTclinical studies
• RANGER® Study (ongoing)• Meaningful Recovery (S3-S4 and M3-M5) in 87% of nerve
reconstructions
• No graft-related complications
![Page 27: Νευρικά Αλλομοσχεύματα- Nerve allografts](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062523/589cb6981a28abbe4a8b6c4b/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
ACELLULARIZED NERVE GRAFTclinical studies
• MATCH® control arm of RANGER® study (ongoing)• Outcomes are comparable to nerve autograft and
exceed those for nerve conduit in historical controls.

ACELLULARIZED NERVE GRAFTskepticism
• McKinnon, 2014: “ contraindicated in motor nerve & critical sensory nerve reconstruction ; autologous repair with autograft or nerve transfer would always be my reconstruction of choice in these defects”
• 2013 ASSH, San Francisco, CA: straw poll taken during allograft nerve session found that the overwhelming majority of surgeons would prefer autograft to processed allograft if it were their own mixed nerve being repaired.

• Pros– Safe (as per studies)– Single graft repair, no need for multiple cable graft orientation– Multiple length and diameters (only up to 7cm length)– Excellent handling properties– Supporting clinical studies (ongoing)– Time efficient– ? Revision
• Cons– Cost– Must have a prediction of nerve and gap size– Logistics ( scheduling, transfer and storage)– Compromised host?/ previous infection?/ scarred bed?
