| Why carry out this study? |
| Many studies showed positive effects of steroid alone or when combined with other materials on nerve regeneration in animals. |
| One report showed a recovery of neglected neuropathy in a leprosy patient using steroids. |
| The aim of this article is to describe a successful and complete recovery of the ulnar nerve in a 33-year-old female who sustained a traumatic laceration injury. |
| What was learned from the study? |
| We believe that this is the first report of nerve recovery using local steroid injection after trauma that lead to chronic nerve dysfunction. |
