A 65-year-old man with a completely transected left sciatic nerve at the buttock received an implant with a bioabsorbable nerve conduit over a 20-mm gap. The conduit was filled with collagen to facilitate nerve regeneration. At 4 years after implantation
reinnervation potentials were detected in the muscles
and there was sensory recovery in the reinnervated areas. Thereafter
motor and sensory function recovered gradually over a 14-year period.
