Background: The limited availability of donor sites for nerve grafting has continued to stimulate research toward finding suitable alternatives for autograft. The aim of this research was to study the effect of piezoelectric channel and collagen gel on nerve regeneration. Materials and methods: This research is an experimental study. Forty eight male rats (200-250 gr) were used. After axotomy...

Objective(s):Based on the previous reports, silymarin can suppress nitric oxide, prostaglandin E2 (PGE2), leukotrienes, cytokines production, and neutrophils infiltration. Regarding the fact that inflammation plays an important role in neuropathic and formalin-induced pain, it was assumed that silymarin could reduce pain. The present study investigates the analgesic effects of silymarin in chem...

Sciatic notch tumours of the intra-pelvic variety are rare lesions and commonly arise from sciatic nerve. These usually benign neurogenic most common them is schwannoma. Conventional laparotomy techniques have associated surgical morbidity significant blood loss. The advent robotic systems refinement in robotic-assisted to access deep lying pre-sacral has offered a novel way surgically handle s...

neurofibromatosis type 1, also known as von recklinghausen disease, is an autosomal dominant disorder with an incidence of 1 per 4000. neurofibromas are benign, heterogeneous tumors arising from the connective tissue of peripheral nerve sheaths, especially the endoneurium. visceral involvement in disseminated neurofibromatosis is rare. neurofibroma occurs most frequently in the stomach and jeju...

Objective(s) The role of Elaeagnus angustifolia fruit as an analgesic agent in acute pain has been proved earlier. In this study, the effects of aqueous extracts of three parts of this fruit (pericarp, medulla and seed) on chronic pain were investigated in mice. Materials and Methods A partial nerve injury was made using a tight ligature around the sciatic nerve, then doses (0.5, 1, 1.5 g/kg...
