Frozen vein wrapping for chronic nerve constriction injury reduces sciatic nerve allodynia in a rat model

Abstract Background Autologous vein wrapping (VW) is used in the treatment of recurrent chronic constriction neuropathy and traumatic peripheral nerve injury. However, use of autologous veins is limited by the inability to obtain longer veins of sufficient length for larger sites. Frozen allograft t...
