Animal studies have suggested that peripheral nerve transection results in substantial loss of ganglion cells and the selective survival of cells based on size. The implications are that subsequent repair of peripheral nerve injuries will be determined by the numerical density and character of the surviving cells. The purpose of this study was twofold: First, to determine the effect of mental nerve transection without repair on trigeminal ganglion cell density and morphology in adult rats, and second, to determine the variation of trigeminal ganglion cell density and morphology after immediate and delayed repair.
