The use of thoracodorsal nerve transfer in restoration of irreparable C5 and C6 spinal nerve lesions

Although, we found no significant statistical difference between analysed patients according to the percentage of recoveries and mean values, we established a better quality and shorter time of recovery for the musculocutaneous nerve. According to obtained results, we consider that transfer may be a valuable method in reconstruction after directly irreparable C5 and C6 spinal nerve lesions.
