Abstract:
Symptomatic neuromas of the upper and lower extremities present significant challenges for affected individuals in both daily life and professional environments following peripheral nerve injuries. Traditional approaches, such as neuroma excision or conservative therapy methods, have so far predominated. In recent years, however, peripheral nerve surgery has expanded the therapeutic spectrum for neuroma treatment through approaches such as nerve reconstruction with allo-/autografts, end-to-side neurorrhaphy, targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) surgery, and regenerative peripheral nerve interface (RPNI) procedures (1).
