Strategies to restore bladder control after peripheral nerve injury

盆腔手术的一个主要并发症是膀胱失去控制，主要是由于切除癌组织时神经损伤所致。这对生活质量有很大影响。对受损的膀胱神经的研究很少。在这个项目中，我们将研究损伤后膀胱神经发生了什么，以及如何使它们再生。我们还将研究是否可以使未受损的膀胱神经来补偿丧失的功能。

A major complication of pelvic surgery is loss of bladder control, mainly due to nerve injury at the time of removing cancerous tissue. This has a big effect on quality of life. Very little research has been conducted on injured bladder nerves. In this project we will investigate what happens to bladder nerves after injury and how we can make them regrow. We will also investigate if undamaged bladder nerves can be made to compensate for the lost function.
