Nerve allografts as a bridge of regeneration is useful in the repair of peripheral nerve defect resulting from trauma, and leprosy. But immunological rejection and complicated scar formation is an unavoidable problem in the application of allogeneic nerve grafts in rats with histopathologically, scanning electron microscopically. 24 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were used as the experimental animals. A 2cm skin incision was made on the lateral aspects of limb, parallel to femur. segments of sciatic nerve trunk taken from rats, 10mm was resected at the middle of the thigh, nerve graft was inserted between the ends of gaps with perineural and epineural suture method with 10-0 prolene. Obsrevation was made simultaneously at 3 day, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 8 weeks after surgery. The results were as follows. 1. In light and electronic microscopic studies, marked degenerative change of the graft nerves were observed at 2 weeks after surgery. 2 After surgery, blood clot fromation was observed at 3 day, granualtion tissue formation was observed at 2 week, and fibrous tissue proliferation was observed at 3 week 3. In change of nerve fiber, there were Wallerian degeneration at early stage, decrease in degeneration at 4 week but degeneration of myeline was continuded at 8 week. 4. At 4 week, schwann cells proliferate at its cut ends to join with the distal and proximal stump of the damaged nerve. 5. Fibrous scar tissues are formed at 2 weeks and increased progressively in 8 weeks, which was interrupted the regeneration of grafted nerve
