Force Characteristics of the Rat Sternomastoid Muscle Reinnervated with End-to-End Nerve Repair
The goal of this study was to establish force data for the rat sternomastoid (SM) muscle after reinnervation with nerve end-to-end anastomosis (EEA), which could be used as a baseline for evaluating the efficacy of new reinnervation techniques. The SM muscle on one side was paralyzed by transecting...
