When a person receives a limb donation, how do surgeons “wire up” the nerves so that the recipient can use the limb and feel sensation from it?
In: Biology
I didn’t have a transplant but I cut my finger off and feel reattached it. Their are a dozen or so vein clamps and nerve clamps in there. They told me they basically pull the nerves and vein together and the clamp it with the clamps to hold it and either stitch it together or do something else. I can post a pic of my x-ray and you can see the hardware in there.
