There was a significant statistical difference in MRC grade following the treatment. We analyzed extension of the wrist, extension of the fingers including the thumb, and abduction of the thumb. The final recovery was evaluated by muscle strength assessment and classified using MRC. The majority of patients were treated by neurolysis or sural nerve grafting, while only few were treated by direct suture. The nerve injuries were verified by US and EMNG. In this paper we presented the outcomes and analyzed the patient, clinical, and surgical procedure related characteristics and factors that may influence the outcome overall, in 77 patients treated at Clinic for Neurosurgery, Clinical Center of Serbia during a 20 years period. The results of treatment of these injuries, by contemporary surgical approaches, remain diverse. Radial nerve injuries are often associated with humeral shaft fractures. 6School of Public Health and Health Management and Institute of Social Medicine, Faculty of Medicine, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Serbia.5College of Higher Vocational Studies “Sports Academy”, Belgrade, Serbia.4Clinic for Neurosurgery, Military Medical Academy, Belgrade, Serbia.3Clinic for Neurosurgery, Clinical Center of Montenegro, Podgorica, Montenegro.2Department of Peripheral Nerve Surgery, Functional Neurosurgery and Pain Management Surgery Clinic for Neurosurgery, University Clinical Center of Serbia, Belgrade, Serbia.1Faculty of Medicine, University of Belgrade, Belgrade, Serbia.Lukas Rasulić 1,2 *, Slavko Djurašković 3, Novak Lakićević 3, Milan Lepić 4, Andrija Savić 1,2, Jovan Grujić 1,2, Aleksa Mićić 1, Stefan Radojević 1, Vladimir Puzović 5, Miloš Maletić 1 and Stefan Mandić-Rajčević 6
