Resumen

En el presente artículo, se revisa el estado actual de los estudios acerca del empleo de transplantes neurales en la paraplejia traumática. A pesar de que existen numerosas evidencias de que, en determinadas condiciones experimentales, los transplantes intramedulares de tejido nervioso fetal pueden integrarse en la médula espinal lesionada, constituyendo un puente de tejido que une los segmentos proximal y distal, no existen hasta ahora datos objetivos a favor que esta reconstrucción anatómica se acompañe de una recuperación funcional significativa.

Palabras clave:

Summary

This articIe reviews the present state of the study of neural transplantation in traumatic paraplegia. In spite of ample evidence that under certain experimental conditions, intrameduIlary transplants of fetal nerve tissue can become integrated in the injured spinal cord, constituting a tissular bridge between the proximal and distal segments, to date there are no objective data to indicate that this anatomical reconstruction is accompanied by a significant functional recovery.

Key words:
Neural transplantation
Paraplegia
Spinal cord
