Long-lasting significant functional improvement in chronic severe spinal cord injury following scar resection and polyethylene glycol implantation
We identified a suitable biomatrix that improved axon regeneration and functional outcome after partial (moderate) and complete (severe) chronic spinal cord injury (SCI) in rat. Five weeks after dorsal thoracic hemisection injury the lesion scar was resected via aspiration and the resulting cavity w...
