Abstract

Surgeons performing TMR of the saphenous nerve should explore the anterior medial thigh approximately 16-26 cm distal to the inguinal crease to reliably identify VM targets. If more proximal, motor targets are more variable, and other nerve reconstruction techniques such as regenerative peripheral nerve interfaces should be utilized.
