Imaging the Nerve "Allograft to Muscle Target" Technique in Neuroma Management

Neuroma management has gained significant attention in the peripheral nerve literature in the past decade. Alongside techniques such as targeted muscle reinnervation and regenerative peripheral nerve interface, another technique known as the "allograft to nowhere" has emerged. This approach involves the placement of an extended allograft at the end of a nerve, creating a regrowth zone in cases where muscle or nerve targets are not available. Although technique and outcomes research has been performed regarding the above techniques, there is a lack of imaging studies to examine postoperative outcomes. The authors present a case of recurrent neuroma management using a combined nerve allograft to nowhere + muscle target, supported by postoperative imaging.
