Ultrasound-Guided Cryoneurolysis for the Treatment of Painful Diabetic Neuropathy of the Foot: A Case Series.

Diabetic peripheral neuropathy is one of the most common causes of chronic neuropathic pain. Treatment of peripheral neuropathy has been limited to either treating the underlying cause or using medications, such as tricyclic antidepressants and anticonvulsants, to manage the symptoms. In this case series, we report the use of ultrasound-guided percutaneous cryoneurolysis of the superficial peroneal nerves to treat diabetic neuropathy of the feet. This demonstrates the potential effectiveness and safety of using cryoneurolysis for painful peripheral diabetic neuropathy.
