Tóm tắt

Recurrent nerve entrapment syndrome is a well-known complication in peripheral nerve surgery that often leads to multiple reoperations and increases the risk of unfavorable outcomes due to scarring. In our outpatient clinic, we found two patients with recurrent nerve entrapment syndrome with significant symptoms such as complete sensory loss and chronic pain who were willing to undergo re-exploration of their entrapped nerves and cover them with a human acellular dermal matrix (ADM) as a protective shield against recurrence. Both patients had complete recovery of the nerve entrapment syndrome with satisfactory clinical results. The use of a human ADM appears to be a promising tool for recurrent nerve entrapment surgery without adding morbidity to the procedure.
