The developmental source for a key type of neuron that allows animals to walk, a finding that could help pave the way for new therapies for spinal cord injuries or other motor impairments related to ...

LONG survival of patients with complete severance of the spinal cord is rarely encountered in civilian life. During the recent world conflict, however, the high incidence of casualties from ...

Late direct repair of a lacerated flexor tendon is a tendon repair performed 3 weeks after injury. When direct repair is performed late, contraction of the musculotendonous unit makes it difficult to ...

What is the cause of flexor and extensor spasms seen in patients with paraplegia? What is the prognosis in such patients? How do we manage such a problem? In a spinal cord injury resulting in ...
