Regenerative Peripheral Nerve Interfaces Effectively Prevent Neuroma Formation After Sciatic Nerve Transection in Rats

ObjectiveThe disordered growth of nerve stumps after amputation leading to the formation of neuromas is an important cause of postoperative pain in amputees. This severely affects the patients' quality of life. Regenerative peripheral nerve interfaces (RPNIs) are an emerging method for neuroma...
