Ballance and Purves Stewart "carefully explored the matter of degeneration and regeneration of peripheral nerves after they have been divided" (Heirs of Hippocrates 2173). "Ballance and Purves-Stewart were clearly among the first to understand the histological changes in a nerve graft. Other than thinking that neurilemma cells laid down new axons, . . . they had an overall level of understanding of the process well ahead of their time" (James L. Stone, "Sir Charles Balance: Pioneer British Neurological Surgeon", Neurosurgery, Vol. 44, no. 3, March 1999, p. 621).

Yours/ CAB". Signed by Author(s).
