FIELD: medicine. SUBSTANCE: method involves mobilizing nerve and performing controlled lateral traction of mobilized areas aside from operation cut until nerve elongation is achieved that enables its segments to be put closer and place sutured nerve within the boundaries of healthy tissues. When cross- or obliquely sloping cicatrix is observed, proximal and distal portions of nerve are mobilized from two cuts placed on different sides. Traction is carried out in divergent directions along the lines running in parallel to cicatrix plane. EFFECT: enhanced effectiveness. 2 cl
