Gunshot injuries to the nerves.

Abstract

The authors report their 10-year experience in the treatment of war injuries in the Gaza strip. Bullet injuries to nerves can be assessed using Sunderland's classification. Grade 4 and 5 lesions must be repaired in the same way as any traumatic nerve injuries. A detailed series of sciatic nerve repair is presented. In this series, 12 nerve gaps were repaired by direct nerve coaptation using 90° knee flexion for six weeks. The results of this technique at 1 to 4 years follow-up are better than to those of sciatic nerve grafting.
