neurotmesis
C2CEFR level
98/100Rarity: very rare
TechnicalRegister
The most severe grade of nerve injury, involving complete transection of the nerve trunk.
Because the laceration had caused neurotmesis, surgical repair was required to restore any function.
Rarity runs from 0 (a word everyone knows) to 100 (almost never seen outside specialist or literary writing). Level is the word's real difficulty on the CEFR scale, from A1 to C2.
