[Value of Samii's method in the treatment of digital neuromas]

The treatment of pain after digital amputation consists of surgical treatment if the pain is due to excessive nociception on the nerve. With micro-surgical technique, it is possible, like Samii, to suture some of the fascicles into central direction with the other nerves fascicles, after resection of the nervroma; or to anastomose the nerve with the other nerve, if we have two nevromas on the same digital amputation stump. Results of this technique are generally progressive disappearance of the pain.
