95 REVASCULARIZATION PATTERNS OF NERVE ALLOGRAFTS 5 Figure 2. Macroscopic images of nerve samples obtained with conventional digital photography. Images of the same samples visualized in Figure 2. Microvessels were clearly seen in the control nerve (A), autograft (B), allograft (C) allograft wrapped in a pedicled superficial inferior epigastric fascial (SIEF) flap (D). These photographs depicted nerve groups at 16 weeks. Sutures that were used to repair the graft were visible in nerve graft groups (B,D) and depicted the border of the analyzed frame. Nerve samples were positioned from proximal to distal (left to right respectively). Scale bar is set at 1 millimeter.
