Nerve Transfer Is Superior to Nerve Grafting for Suprascapular Nerve Reconstruction in Obstetrical Brachial Plexus Birth Injury: A Meta-Analysis.
Nickel KJ, Morzycki A, Hsiao R, Morhart MJ, Olson JL. Nickel KJ, et al. Hand (N Y). 2023 May;18(3):385-392. doi: 10.1177/15589447211030691. Epub 2021 Aug 27. Hand (N Y). 2023. PMID: 34448408 Free PMC article.
There remains debate as to the optimal method of upper trunk reconstruction. The purpose of this study was to test the hypothesis that spinal accessory nerve to suprascapular nerve transfer leads to improved shoulder external rotation relative to sural …
