All over the world research is going on to improve the outcome of the treatment of peripheral nerve lesions. Questi
ons over questions arise. Is the autologeous nerve grafting still the golden standard in bridging defects? Have alte
rnative techniques to overcome defects reached a level to replace autografting? To which length are they effectiv
e? What is the role of allografting? Are there still indications for vascularized nerve grafts? What can be expected f
rom end to side coaptation? Does it exist at all? Under what conditions useful recoveries can be achieved? Are the
re new developments in physical medicine and physiotherapy? Can the quality of recovery be influenced by surger
y on muscles to provide a better equilibrium of forces? To what extent cerebral plasticity may be exploited to impro
ve functional results? The contributions in this book give answers to all of these questions.
