## Abstract This study compares nerve repair following tissue expansion with nerve repair using an interposed graft in the rat. Group I had expansion conducted over 2 weeks at 40 mmHg. A 4 mm segment was excised from the lengthened nerve and repaired primarily. Group II had a 4 mm segment of nerve
The inter- and intraobserver reliability of the walking-track analysis of sciatic nerve function in the rat was assessed. Twenty-five walking tracks were assessed on three different occasions by four observers. Whereas the interobserver reliability was found to be excellent (r = 0.92), the intraobse
