After a senseless attack left former fireman Darek Fidyka paralyzed from the waist down in 2010, he never thought he would be able to stand up again. But thanks to a revolutionary technique, the 38-year-old Polish man has become the first person in the world to regain use of his legs, following a traumatic spinal cord injury.

braeden_k10년 이하1) Spinal cord injuries are hard to repair because cells in the nervous system usually do not regenerate so if too many die then you will be without cells in your spine. Raisman's big breakthrough was that he found out that the nerve cells human nasal cavity were constantly regenerating so he could use those cells to help Fidyka. 2) The surgeons obtained Fidyka's OCE cells by extracting ready olfactory bulb. After it was extracted they injected it into just below his spinal cord. 3) The information that tells you that this transplant was successful is "Though it has taken about two years, Fidyka's spine is showing signs of healing remarkably well." Raisman is planning to update the procedure to a point where all people that are paralyzed may be able to walk again.
sam905702398510년 이하1# The spinal cord injuries are hard to repair because the sensory nerve cells in the nervous system do not regenerate. Geoffrey Raiman's big breakthrough was that he discovered that the OEC's inside the nasal were constantly regenerating. 2# Surgeons obtained Fidyka's OEC's by extracting them from the olfactory bulb. Then they put it in the damaged part of the spinal cord. 3# The passage said Fidyka's spine is showing signs of healing remarkably well. The former fireman who has regained muscle mass on his left thigh can now partially move his lower limbs and feel sensation in both legs. So that tells that it was successful. Geoffrey Raiman's ultimate aim is to develop the procedure to a point where it can be rolled out as a worldwide general approach.- 16693010년 이하1. The problem is that the cells in the nervous system do not regenerate. His big breakthrough was that a scientist discovered that the OEC constantly regenerated itself. 2. They extracted the olfactory bulb witch housed the cells. They placed it above and below the spinal injury. 3. It tells me that the procedure was successful when it says Fidikas spinal cord showed great healing. He wants to develop a procedure that can be rolled out worldwide.

matthewjet10년 이하1.they are hard to repair because they cant push the spinal cord together. They discovered that olfactory ensheathing nerve cells (OEC's), which reside inside the human nasal cavity are constantly regenerating. 2. who published the results of the study in the scientific journal. 3. his ultimate goal is to be able to walk again
josh4526110년 이하1. spinal cord wounds is that cells in the nervous system, which includes the brain, spinal cord, and sensory nerves, typically do not regenerate; therefore, when damage is inflicted to any of these areas, the chances of recovery are usually less than 1%. 2. They reside inside the human nasal cavity are constantly regenerating. What was even more exciting is that in laboratory experiments on rats and dogs, the OECs were able to reconnect damaged nerves in the animals’ nervous systems, allowing them to regain their mobility. 3. Raisman, who published the results of the study in the scientific journal, Cell Transplantation on October 20th, is now trying to raise funds so that he can conduct similar surgeries on ten other patients and monitor their progress in a controlled clinic environment. His ultimate goal is to “develop the procedure to a point where it can be rolled out as a worldwide general approach”, so that the three million paralyzed people all over the world may someday soon, have a chance to walk again.
