Combining an external fixator and an artificial nerve-guide for the treatment of a complex digital injury.

Antonio Merolli1, Arturo Militerno, Luigi Mingarelli, Francesco Catalano.   

Abstract

A complex digital injury, with tendon, nerve and bone losses, may pose the problem of which structure deserves the highest priority. Authors were able to treat tendon, nerve and bone lesions with the same level of priority thanks to the combined use of an external fixator and a nerve-guide.
