Figure 1

The Spared Nerve Injury (SNI) procedure consists of transection and displacement of the tibial and common peroneal nerves, sparing the adjacent sural and saphenous nerves. This procedure leads to complete denervation of the tibial (central) innervated area (red), but leaves the medial (saphenous: yellow) and lateral (sural: green) sides of the hind paw glabrous skin intact.
