Neurolemma serves a protective function for peripheral nerve fibers. Damaged nerve fibers may regenerate if the perikaryon is not damaged and the neurolemma remains intact. The neurolemma forms a regeneration tube through which the growing axon reestablishes its original connection.

A neurilemoma is a tumor of the neurilemma.[3]
