Nerve surgery comparison for finger amputation pain
Part of Injuries & trauma, Pain clinical trials.
This trial compares two surgical techniques for managing pain after a finger or toe amputation. It aims to find which approach better reduces long-term pain and improves recovery.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are 18 years or older.
- You have had a finger or toe amputated due to an injury.
- Your surgery used one of two specific nerve procedures: microanastomosis or traction neurectomy.
- At least 6 months have passed since your surgery.

This study evaluates how well nerve surgery works for patients with severe, persistent pain in the area where a limb was amputated. Researchers will review outcomes to understand if this surgical approach helps reduce pain that hasn't responded to other treatments.
This trial tests a surgical procedure called targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) to prevent pain after a leg amputation. The goal is to see if rerouting nerves during amputation can reduce phantom limb pain or stump pain.
This trial studies different surgical approaches to reduce persistent pain in the leftover part of an amputated limb. You may be able to join if your post-amputation pain has lasted more than a year and your pain level stays high despite stable pain treatments and prosthesis use.
This study tests two surgical techniques—target muscle re-innervation and regenerative peripheral nerve interfaces—alone or together, to help reduce pain felt in the remaining limb or the missing limb (phantom pain) after amputation for cancer. The goal is to find the best way to manage pain and improve quality of life.
This study tests a new type of nerve stimulation device placed in the leg to see if it can reduce long-term pain after amputation. It's for people who have already had nerve surgery and still have significant pain.
This study compares two surgical techniques to repair an injured nerve in the finger. It aims to improve how well sensation comes back after a traumatic digital nerve injury.
