Precision Micro-Surgery to Restore Sensation & Movement
Expert reconstruction of damaged peripheral nerves using advanced grafting and conduit techniques. Dr. Arun Saroha offers restorative hope for patients in Puri.
Peripheral nerve injuries, whether from deep lacerations, fractures, or crush injuries, can leave a patient in Puri with permanent numbness or localized paralysis. Unlike the brain and spinal cord, peripheral nerves have the remarkable ability to regenerate—but only if they are correctly aligned and bridged. Dr. Arun Saroha specializes in high-precision nerve grafting, using microscopic techniques to reconnect the pathways of the human body.
When a nerve is torn and the ends cannot reach each other without tension, a "nerve graft" is required. For residents of Puri, we utilize the gold-standard autograft (usually the sural nerve from the leg) or advanced synthetic conduits to create a bridge through which the nerve fibers can grow back. This meticulous process requires microsurgical sutures thinner than a human hair and an deep understanding of nerve anatomy.
Nerve healing in Puri is a biological journey:
Successful nerve repair depends on the precision of the initial "re-wiring." Dr. Saroha leverages the best technology available for all Puri patients:
High-level magnification to align individual nerve bundles (fascicles).
Processed donor tissues that prevent the need for a second incision in the leg for Puri patients.
Modern biological adhesives that supplement sutures for a "tension-free" and leak-proof repair.
In Puri, nerve grafting is just the beginning. To ensure the best clinical outcome, we integrate your surgery with specialized neurological rehabilitation. Because muscles disconnected from their nerves for too long will eventually "dry up" (atrophy), we use targeted electrical stimulation and passive exercises to keep your muscle tissue healthy while the nerve regenerates from the graft site down to the target muscle.
Dr. Saroha's approach emphasizes patient education and realistic goal setting. While nerve regeneration takes time, the restoration of a patient's ability to walk without a brace or use their hand to hold a cup is a victory worth working for. If you have suffered a nerve injury in Puri, don't settle for permanent disability—explore the possibilities of restorative nerve grafting today.
Advanced solutions for localized and complex peripheral nerve injuries.
The "Gold Standard" using the patient's own tissue to bridge large nerve gaps for maximum compatibility and growth for Puri patients.
Micro-suturing freshly torn nerves for immediate reconnection, providing the fastest recovery path for residents in Puri.
Using collagen tubes to bridge small nerve gaps in Puri without the need for donor tissue from the patient's leg.
Removing painful, tangled nerve masses (Neuromas) and reconstructing the nerve path to stop chronic "phantom" pain for our Puri surgical patients.
High-precision repair of the nerve behind the knee to restore foot movement and stop "slapping" gait for patients in Puri.
Delicate repair of finger nerves to restore sensation and protective feeling for residents in Puri suffering from hand trauma.
The sural nerve only provides sensation to a small patch on the side of the foot. Taking it for a graft in Puri leaves a small numb area but does not affect walking or strength.
The best sign is a "Tinel's Sign" - if you tap along the path of the nerve in Puri and feel a "zing" or "electric shock" further down the limb, it means the nerve is growing.
Sensory nerves can often be repaired years later in Puri, but motor (muscle) nerves have a shorter window (typically 12-18 months) before the muscle becomes permanently unusable.
An EMG involves small needles and mild electrical pulses. While slightly uncomfortable, it is the only way for Dr. Saroha to mapping your nerve's health in Puri.
This is exactly why we use a nerve graft. The graft acts as a scaffold or "tunnel" in Puri that allows the new nerve fibers to cross the gap and reach the target muscle.
Often, a splint or brace is used in Puri for 2-3 weeks to protect the delicate nerve repair from being stretched or pulled while the initial healing occurs.
A simple nerve repair in Puri can take 1-2 hours, while complex multi-nerve grafting for a major trauma can take 4-6 hours under the microscope.
Physical therapy helps maintain muscle and joint health in Puri, but it cannot "reconnect" a severed nerve. Only surgery can provide the path for regeneration.
