Sciatic nerve Sciatic nerve The sciatic nerve (also called "ischiadic nerve", "ischiatic nerve") is a large nerve in humans and other animals. It begins in the lower back and runs through the buttock and down the lower limb. It is the longest and widest single nerve in the human body, going from the top of the leg to the foot on the posterior aspect. The sciatic nerve provides the connection to the nervous system for nearly the whole of the skin of the leg, the muscles of the back of the thigh, and those of the leg and foot. It is derived
Nerve allograft any injury. It is human nerve tissue, processed to remove cellular and noncellular factors such as cells, fat, blood, axonal debris and chondroitin sulfate proteoglycans while preserving the three-dimensional scaffold and basal lamina tubular structure of the nerve. This means the nerve allograft only consists of extracellular matrix (ECM), which is sterile and decullularized. There are three types of nerves; In a trauma or surgical resection, a nerve can be damaged, which is called a nerve defect. This defect needs to be repaired in order to regain full or partial sensory and motor function. Peripheral nerve injury is a major
