U.S., Aug. 29 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07146009) titled 'Targeted Nerve Surgery for the Prevention of Post-Mastectomy Pain Syndrome: A Randomized Trial' on Aug. 21.
Brief Summary: Post-Mastectomy Pain Syndrome (PMPS) is a chronic pain condition often caused by neuroma formation and nerve injury following breast cancer surgery. Standard breast reconstruction protocols typically do not address damaged intercostal nerves, leaving patients at risk for persistent nerve-related pain.
Prophylactic nerve surgery techniques, such as Targeted Muscle Reinnervation (TMR) and Regenerative Peripheral Nerve Interfaces (RPNI), offer innovative approaches to prevent neuroma formation by managing damaged ...
