Impact of Surgery Timing on Outcomes After Nerve Transfer to Restore Elbow Flexion
Background:. Nerve reconstruction following brachial plexus injury (BPI) is a time-sensitive procedure, and surgical delay may negatively impact muscle reinnervation and outcomes. This study investigated the impact of surgical timing on elbow flexion strength in patients with BPI undergoing nerve tr...
