Abstract
To bring some light into the ongoing controversy concerning end-to-side coaptation in brachial plexus surgery, the authors organized a symposium in 2006 titled How To Improve Peripheral Nerve Surgery. The authors sought the participation of experienced surgeons and researchers who had made personal contributions to the field. This article contains information collected at this symposium and presents the authors' clinical results and ideas illustrating the potential of nerve fiber transfer by end-to-side coaptation.
