Peripheral nerve injuries may substantially impair a patient’s function and quality of life. Despite appropriate treatment, outcomes often remain poor. Direct repair remains the standard of care when repair is possible without excessive tension. For larger nerve defects, nerve autografting is the gold standard. However, a considerable challenge is donor site morbidity. Processed nerve allografts and conduits are other options, but evidence supporting their use is limited to smaller nerves and shorter gaps. Nerve transfer is another technique that has seen increasing popularity. The future of care may include novel biologics and pharmacologic therapy to enhance regeneration.
