Abstract

The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of Ga-As(Gallium-Arsenide, wave length; 904 nm) infrared laser irradiation on healing of the experimentally crush injured rat sciatic nerves. The bilateral sciatic nerves of 43 adult male Sprague-Dawley rats were compressed surgically with a straight hemostat (1 mm width). The right legs of all the rats were irradiated using a 27 mW Ga-As infrared laser (laser irradiated group). The radiation procedure was administered for 3 minutes every day for 1, 3, 5, and 7 weeks in each group. Left legs were not irradiated and served as the control group. The numbers of total myelinated axon and degenerated myelin in the sciatic nerves of bilateral legs were measured and analyzed with mage analysis system in order to make a morphological analysis of the effect of the Ga-As infrared laser on injured nerves. Total number of myelinated axons was increased with time interval, especially in the 1, 3. and 5 week of irradiated group. Conversely, the number of degenerated myelin was decreased with time interval, especially in the irradiated group. The effects in the irradiated group were more pronounced than those of the control group. In conclusion, the Ga-As infrared laser irradiation is a useful adjuvant therapy to the regeneration of the peripheral nerve injury.
