What is the repair of peripheral nerves?
Answer:
1. schwann cells phagocytose degenerative myelin
2. proximal and distal axons degenerate
3. debris is cleared by macrophages
4. schwnn cells proliferate along the former course of the axon along endoneurium
5. proximal axon generates varies sprouts advancing between schwann cells
6. once regenerated axons meet end organ schwnn cells start myelin production
