A Study of Acellular Human Nerve Allografts as a Way to Decrease Sensory Deficits After Peripheral Nerve Biopsy

Overview

About this study

The purpose of this study is to see if using a nerve graft from another person not genetically related is effective in decreasing the sensory deficits that happen with an open nerve gap following a peripheral nerve biopsy.
