 A patient (case 2) undergoing M-(M + U) repair (part 2). A The fracture was fixed; there were long-segment defects in the MN and UN and deep branch of the RN. B The proximal trunk of the UN containing nutrient vessels was used as the graft material. C The proximal end of the MN was sutured to the distal ends of the MN and UN, and the nutrient vessel grafts were anastomosed. D The UN trunk was used as the graft material to repair a deep RN branch. E The superficial RN branch was repaired by direct suturing. F Schematic diagram of nerve merging repair in case 2
