Neurotization
Neurotization is a medical process that involves the restoration of nerve function after injury or damage. This can occur naturally as the body heals, or it can be facilitated through surgical techniques. The goal is to reconnect nerves to their target tissues, allowing for improved sensation and movement.
In some cases, neurotization may involve transferring nerves from one area of the body to another, a technique often used in reconstructive surgery. This process can help patients regain functionality in areas affected by trauma or disease, enhancing their overall quality of life.
