Clinical trials

Pudendal and inferior cluneal neuralgias are responsible for chronic pelvicperineal pain. These two neuralgias are associated in approximately 25% of cases. In the event of failure of first-line multimodal medical treatment, a mini-invasive robot-assisted laparoscopic decompression can be proposed. These surgeries carry the risk of neurapraxia, leading to a temporary increase in neuropathic pain and numbness in the nerve sensitive area, a motoric or neurovegetative disturbance (pudendal).

The objective of our study is to evaluate the efficacy of the laparoscopic robot-assited approach after 1 year of follow-up, on pain experience, and anxiety, depression, post-traumatic stress syndrome and quality of life.
