Abstract

BACKGROUND The sciatic and peroneal nerves are the most frequently injured in lower extremities, followed by tibial and femoral nerves. The aim of this study is to evaluate the functional results of acute nerve grafting in traumatic sciatic nerve injuries. METHODS A total of 9 patients with sciatic nerve defect were treated with primary nerve grafting. The mean age was 31.7 years. The etiologic factors were gunshot wounds, traffic accident, and penetrating trauma. RESULTS All of the patients had sciatic nerve defects ranging from 3.4 to 13.6 cm. The follow-up period ranged between 25 and 84 months. The tibial nerve motor function was “good” or “very good” (M3-M4) in 5 patients (55.6%). The plantar flexion was not sufficient for the rest of the patients. The peroneal nerve motor function was also “good” and “very good” in 3 patients (33.3%). CONCLUSION The functional results of the acute nerve grafting of the sciatic nerve within the first week after the injury are poorer than reported in the related literature. This protocol should only be applied to select patients who have adequate soft tissue coverage and healthy nerve endings.

Özet

AMAÇ Siyatik ve peroneal sinirler alt ekstremitede en fazla yara- lanan sinirler olup, bunları tibial ve femoral sinirler takip eder. Bu çalışmanın amacı travmatik siyatik sinir yaralan- malarında uygulanan akut sinir greftlemesinin fonksiyonel sonuçlarının değerlendirilmesidir. GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM Siyatik sinir defekti olan toplam 9 hasta primer sinir greft- lemesi ile tedavi edildi. Hastaların ortalama yaşı 31,7’idi. Etyolojik faktörler ateşli silah yaralanmaları, trafik kazaları ve penetran yaralanmalardı. BULGULAR Hastaların tümünde 3,4 cm ile 13,6 cm arasında değişen siyatik sinir defektleri vardı. Hastaların takip süreleri 25 ile 84 ay arasında değişmekteydi. Tibial sinir motor fonk- siyonu 5 hastada (%55,6) ‘‘iyi’’ ve ‘‘çok iyi’’ (M3-M4) olarak değerlendirilirken diğer hastalarda plantar fleksiyon yetersizdi. Peroneal sinir motor fonksiyonu ise 3 hastada (%33,3) ‘‘iyi’’ ve ‘‘çok iyi’’ olarak değerlendirildi. SONUÇ Siyatik sinir defektlerinde travma sonrasındaki bir haftalık dönemde uygulanan akut sinir greftlemesinin fonksiyonel sonuçları ilgili literatür ile kıyaslandığında daha düşüktür. Bu işlem yeterli yumuşak doku örtüsü bulunan ve sağlıklı sinir uçlarının belirlenebildiği seçilmiş hastalarda uygulan- malıdır.
