Summary

The purpose of our project is to determine if incorporating preventative surgical techniques such as regenerative peripheral nerve interfaces (RPNI) into sural nerve biopsy can reduce the incidence of symptomatic neuroma formation. Findings from this study will inform best practice guidelines and can dramatically impact patient care, improve patient quality of life, and reduce the number of required repeat operations.

Conditions

  • Neuroma of Lower Limb

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Peripheral Nerve Regenerative Interface (RPNI) and Nerve/Muscle Biopsy

RPNI is a surgical technique which wraps denervated muscle targets around severed nerve ends.

PROCEDURE

Biopsy Alone

Sural nerve and muscle biopsy performed in the standard fashion.
