Program to improve nerve healing after laparoscopic surgery for chronic pelvic pain
Official title: Perioperative Medical Program to Optimize Nerve Regeneration After Robot-assisted Laparoscopic Neurolyses of Pudendal and/or Inferior Cluneal Nerves for Chronic Neuralgias: Results After 1-year Follow-up
Run by Ubosga · NCT06796595 · Data updated 2026-11-12
This study is testing a robot-assisted surgery to see if it can help people with chronic pelvic pain from nerve issues feel better and heal more effectively after other treatments haven't worked.

Is this trial a fit for you?
✓Likely a good fit
Ideal candidates are adults over 18 years old who have experienced treatment failure for pudendal and/or inferior cluneal neuralgias.
✕Probably not a fit
Patients who are inoperable due to surgical contraindications or those who are pregnant or breastfeeding may not benefit from this study.
A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.
What this trial studies
This observational study focuses on patients suffering from pudendal and inferior cluneal neuralgias, which cause chronic pelvic pain. It evaluates the outcomes of a minimally invasive robot-assisted laparoscopic decompression procedure after patients have not responded to standard medical treatments. The study aims to assess nerve regeneration and pain relief over a one-year follow-up period. By monitoring the effects of this surgical intervention, the study seeks to optimize recovery and improve patient quality of life.
Why it matters
Potential benefit: If successful, this program could significantly enhance nerve healing and reduce chronic pain for patients suffering from these conditions.
How similar studies have gone: While similar approaches have been explored, this specific program's focus on nerve regeneration post-surgery is relatively novel.
