Efficacy analysis of quadruple nerve decompression surgery for lower limb diabetic peripheral neuropathy
Significant pain relief and improvement in sensation and nerve function have been achieved in patients with PDPN through quadruple nerve decompression, which addresses multiple potential nerve entrapment sites. This procedure, building upon existing evidence, demonstrates sustained efficacy in pain relief and sensory recovery over a median 30-month follow-up, offering a refined surgical option for patients with refractory PDPN who have failed conservative management.
