Abstract: | Epineural microsurgical repair of the lingual nerve has been shown to be effective in leading to return of sensation in an animal model. Cadaver dissections have provided information regarding surgical access to the operative site, some possible anatomic variations that may be encountered, and a method for nerve repositioning to allow a gain in length. |
