The US Food and Drug Administration (FDA) has granted de novo marketing authorisation to TISSIUM’s COAPTIUM CONNECT, representing the first atraumatic option for repairing peripheral nerve damage.

A new approach to repairing peripheral nerves marries the regenerating power of gingiva-derived mesenchymal stem cells with a biological scaffold to enable the functional recovery of nerves following ...

Researchers teamed up to create a novel approach to surgically repairing injured peripheral nerves that relies on the versatility of gingiva-derived mesenchymal stem cells. A new approach to repairing ...

The majority of peripheral nerve injuries are best treated by a thoughtful surgical reconstruction. However, nonoperative treatment is indicated in several circumstances. The first of these is injury ...

Using the latest advances in microtechnology, a team of UCSF scientists has developed a novel strategy for repairing the nerve damage that occurs in injuries to the nervous system. The scientists, in ...

Stem cells derived from human muscle tissue were able to repair nerve damage and restore function in an animal model of sciatic nerve injury. The findings suggest that cell therapy of certain nerve ...

Scientists have long puzzled over nerve regeneration. Damaged nerves in the arms or legs often repair themselves after injury, but those in the brain or spine rarely do. Research in the past 2 decades ...

Nerve Tape® enables nerve repair without microsutures, significantly reducing surgery time Biomechanical testing shows the device offers a stronger or comparable hold compared with standard ...

A protein that helps keep a person from bleeding to death when cut or bruised also slows repair of nerve damage that results from injuries, according to a study with mice. Wirelike nerve-cell ...

A simple, cheap procedure for repairing damaged nerves in the leg can help paralysed rats walk normally within a few days – a dramatic reduction in recovery time. Within minutes of the rats waking up ...

The diagnosis and treatment of injury to the peripheral nervous system is one of the greatest challenges in orthopaedic surgery. These common injuries with potentially devastating results provide ...
