7 cases of 11 peripheral nerve defects (5 median nerves, 5 ulnar nerves, and 1 radial nerve) were repaired through artery-including silicone tubing. The nerves have gaps within 3 cm in 9, and 3 to 5 cm in 2. Repairing the defect's location, 4 of them were below the axilla; 1 at the upper 1/3 part of the forearm and 6 at the lower part of the forearm. The duration of injuries was from 4 to 7 months, except one case lasting over a year. Six patients with 9 nerves involved had adequate follow-up of 6 to 9 months. One patient with 2 nerves was lost to follow-up. The results were excellent in 5 nerves (M4S3), good in 2 (M3S3), and poor in 2 (M1S1).
