• peripheral nerves
  11 February 2004

  The principal structural component of peripheral nerve is the nerve fiber (an axon with its Schwann cells and myelin sheath).
  A nerve consists of numerous fibers that are grouped into fascicles by connective tissue sheaths. Myelinated and unmyelinated nerve fibers are intermingled within the fascicle.
  In the sural nerve, the nerve that is most commonly examined by biopsy and a relatively pure sensory nerve, myelinated fibers range between 2 and 16 μm in diameter and have a bimodal (...)
