Filter by:This study compares manipulative therapy to steroid injection in the treatment of Morton's Neuroma.
Neuroma often occurs after major nerve damage or transection and can be diagnosed with pain at the tip of the stump, positive tinel, imaging (USG/MR). Various treatment methods are used for neuropathic pain, including pharmacological agents, intralesional steroid and local anesthetic injection, alcohol, phenol, radiofrequency or cryotherapy, ablation and surgical applications. Exercise (ROM and relaxation), TENS, biofeedback, hypnosis, acupuncture, psychotherapy, mirror therapy can be used in the treatment of neuropathic pain in amputees. In this study, the investigators aimed to examine the effectiveness of acupuncture on pain, neuroma size and functional status in individuals with lower extremity amputation with neuroma.
The aim of our study is to compare the effect of Morton's neuroma in feet with pes planus and pes cavus on foot pressure and temporal and spatial gait parameters.
This study will address medical devices manufactured by Biomet Microfixation (d.b.a. Zimmer Biomet) designed for fixation and stabilization of the facial and mandibular skeleton.
Role of a neuroma of zygomatic-temporal in triggering of a cluster headache. Exploratory diagnosis, resection, and pathological examination of tumor anticipated .
To assess changes in pain, physical function, and health-related quality of life in patients with post-amputation neuroma-associated residual limb pain after cooled radiofrequency ablation.
The Auditory Nerve Test System (ANTS) is a novel device that stimulates the auditory nerve much like a cochlear implant. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate feasibility of the ANTS during translabyrinthine surgery for vestibular schwannoma resection. If the auditory nerve is kept intact, then the patients will also receive a cochlear implant at the same time potentially alleviating the morbidities caused by a vestibular schwannoma and asymmetric sensorineural hearing loss.
Comparing safety, pain, user experience, healthcare economic costs, work productivity, impairment and quality of life outcomes between Axoguard® Nerve Cap and neurectomy in the treatment of symptomatic neuromas in the foot. Study consists of a 15 subject pilot phase with Axoguard® Nerve Cap implants followed for 3 months and then a comparative study of 86 subjects randomized between the treatment groups followed for 12 months.
Objective: The aim of the present study was to assess the effectiveness of insole with metatarsal support on pain in patients with Morton`s neuroma and the impact of this insole on function, load distribution in the plantar region, gait variables, quality of life and satisfaction with insole use. Methods: A randomized, controlled, double-blind, clinical trial with intent-to-treat analysis. Seventy-two patients with Morton`s neuroma were randomly allocated into a study group and control group. One week following the baseline evaluation, the study group received insole with metatarsal support made of ethyl vinyl acetate and the control group received a flat insole of the same material, color and density. The groups were evaluated after 6, 12 and 24 weeks of insole use. The following assessment parameters employed: pain when walking and at rest (END); quality of life (SF-36); foot function (FFI and FHSQ); six-minute walk test (6MWT) and foot pressure analysis using the AM Cube FootWalk Pro program.
Foot surgery is a painful surgery that is usually scheduled in outpatients. A good management of analgesia is the crucial point. Regional anesthesia (RA) is the gold standard, that provides good anesthesia and a long duration of analgesia. The sciatic nerve block (or its branches) is the most adapted analgesic technique. Limitation of proximal sciatic block is the motor block of the ankle and results in the impossibility, for the patient, to walk during the early post-operative period. Distal block of the sciatic nerve (tibial and fibular nerve blocks), at the level of the ankle, has been proposed to maintain the mobility of the ankle, to make deambulation with crutches easier. Nevertheless, the lack of sensibility of the heel remains a limitation for early walking, even with adapted shoes (ie : Barouk). A specific anesthesia of the distal part of the foot, respecting the heel, could be the best option to provide an early deambulation and a suitable analgesia. Ultrasound identification and specific anesthesia of the branches supplying the distal part of the foot (medial and lateral plantar nerves) could meet this dual objective : good anesthesia and suitable analgesia for early deambulation. This study is a feasibility study of a specific block of the plantar branches of the tibial nerve, to preserve the sensibility of the heel, in case of foot surgery. The safety of the procedure will be assessed according to the rate of postoperative dysesthesia.
