In this experiment, two proximal ends of themedian and ulnar nerves of rabbit wereapproxirnated within the chitin tube for thepurpose to inhibit the neuroma formation. Byobservation under light and transmission electronmicrnscopo and immunohistochemistry, wefound that: (1) the axons of the two proximalstumpe could regenerate in the chitin tube for 2to 5mm, and then ceased to grow when anaxonal overlap happened resulting in inhibitingneuroma formation; (2) chitin tube could bedegradated a...
