Targeted muscle reinnervation following external hemipelvectomy or hip disarticulation: An anatomic description of technique and clinical case correlates
Sign Up to like & getrecommendations! Published in 2020 at "Journal of Surgical Oncology"
DOI: 10.1002/jso.26189
Abstract: Targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) has been shown to decrease or prevent neuropathic pain, including phantom and residual limb pain, after extremity amputation. Currently, a paucity of data and lack of anatomical description exists regarding TMR… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.hcl.2021.05.002
Abstract: Targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) is the surgical rerouting of severed nerve endings to nearby expendable motor nerve branches. These nerve transfers provide a pathway for axonal growth, limiting the amputated nerve ends' disorganized attempt at… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.hcl.2021.05.006
Abstract: Targeted muscle reinnervation (TMR) is a surgical procedure, whereby nerves without muscle targets after extremity amputation are transferred to residual stump muscles. Thereby, the control of prosthesis is improved by increasing the number of independent… read more here.

DOI: 10.1097/prs.0000000000004370
Abstract: Summary: Prosthetic options for patients with proximal upper limb absence are limited. Current above-elbow prostheses may restore basic motor functions for crucial activities, but they are cumbersome to operate, lack sensory feedback, and are often… read more here.

DOI: 10.1111/ans.15664
Abstract: Upper limb amputation is a devastating injury. Patients may choose to use a passive prosthesis, a traditional body‐powered prosthesis or a myoelectric prosthesis driven by electromyography (EMG) signals generated by underlying muscles. Targeted muscle reinnervation… read more here.
