Thread Superficial Peroneal Nerve Release
Minimally Invasive Relief for Leg and Foot Nerve Pain
Peripheral entrapment neuropathy can cause burning, tingling, or stabbing sensations in the leg and foot. When the superficial peroneal nerve is compressed by surrounding tissue, traditional treatments often fall short.
The TSPNR Procedure: Developed by BayCare Clinic physicians, thread superficial peroneal nerve release uses ultrasound guidance and hydrodissection to separate the nerve from impinging tissue. A cutting thread is then looped under the deep fascia and gently manipulated to release the nerve.
Benefits of TSPNR:
- No scalpel or skin incisions
- Minimal pain and no need for pain medication in most cases
- Performed in-office with local anesthetic
- Some patients walk short distances immediately after the procedure
- Minimal rehabilitation required
*Recovery times vary. Talk with your physician about your expected outcome.
