SEW NERVE INTO MAN’S ARM Remarkable Surgical Operation on Wounded Officer l« Successfully Performed. London.—Sufficient time has now elapsed to assure the complete success of one of the most striking surgical ex periments resulting from the war, says the Mall. The patient, a young officer at the Queen Alexandra Hospital for Officers at Illghgute, had been severely wound ed In the forearm, four Inches of the ulnar nerve, one of the Important nerves supplying the hand, being total ly destroyed, thus rendering the hand practically useless. “About one case In ten of ordinary nerve grafting with laboratory treated nerves succeeds,\ the surgeon who per formed the operation told me, “so I de cided to replace the destroyed nerve with another similar nerve as nearly ! alive as possible.\ Search was therefore made a t a num ber of London hospitals until the sur geon found what he wanted—a case of a limb amputation, from which was obtained the required length of a prac tically living, healthy nerve of the same quality and size as the destroyed ulnar. This was sent to the officers’ hospital by taxicab. On I ts arrival the officer was at once anesthetized, the wound in the forearm was opened, and the sec tion of nerve was sewn to the two ends of the Injured ulnar, thus bridging the gap. The wound was then closed. After some weeks faint sensation, and, later, power to move the muscles of the hand governed by the ulnar nerve, gradually returned, until a few weeks ago the officer was able to leave the hospital and take up light duties at a home station.
