The method of stimulation electromyography and histological methods were used to study regeneration of the sciatic nerve of a rabbit after its division and joining with epineural and perineural sutures as well as by means of a vascular allograft. Successful regeneration of the nerve occurred in both types of sutures. Implantation of a vessel induced a marked inflammatory reaction in the rabbit, which aggravated the conditions for regeneration.
