RODRIGUEZ SOTELO, Pedro; RODRIGUEZ SOSA, Víctor Manuel; TOIRAC MARTINEZ, Rafael y GOMEZ BARRY, Hilario. El láser de helio-neon en la regeneración del nervio ciático seccionado y suturado. Rev Cubana Cir [online]. 1996, vol.35, n.2. ISSN 0034-7493.
To assess the effect of helium-neon (He-Ne) laser on the regeneration of the sectioned and sutured sciatic nerve, 72 Wistar rats were used, divided in three groups, all of them irradiated with He-Ne, xenon light and solar light, respectively. The witness group only received the section and suture of the sciatic nerve. The rats whose nerves were irradiated with xenon and solar light evolutioned the same than the witness group, that is, in their totality they presented trophic injuries of higher or lower degree and also motorial injuries. In the He-Ne group only the loss of a nail of a finger was observed, and no motorial disorders were appreciated. Irradiation with He-Ne laser has an important influence in the restoration of nervous injuries in rats
