Neurotization

Neurotization is a surgical procedure used to restore nerve function by connecting a healthy nerve to an injured one. This allows the healthy nerve to grow into the damaged area, helping re-establish sensation or muscle movement. Typically performed when nerve damage impairs function, neurotization redirects nerve signals, promoting healing and recovery of function. It’s often used in cases of nerve injuries or paralysis, providing hope for regaining mobility and sensation by facilitating nerve regeneration and connection.
