Reconstruction of the Infraorbital Nerve Using Bilayered Artificial Nerve Conduits after Partial Maxillectomy.

Hirata et al and Fujishiro et al reported immediate reconstruction of these nerves using ANCs (Nerbridge) after tumor resection and showed a trend of sensory recovery. 12 , 13 Nishiyama et al performed nerve repair using the Nerbridge ANC (Toyobo) for old lingual nerve damage after tooth extraction and achieved sensation recovery. 14 Although the effectiveness of ANC including Nerbridge has been widely report as discussed above, surgeons must consider cost-effectiveness because this ANC is relatively expensive (around US $3000).
