The recipient is D. Scott Nickerson, MD, of Big Horn, WY, whose research has demonstrated that nerve decompression surgery provides long-term protection against diabetic foot ulceration. The symposium featured a course on fundamental peripheral nerve diagnosis, treatments, and surgical techniques. Microvascular surgical techniques were taught by Mayo Clinic laboratory instructors. Additionally, a faculty of national and international experts presented lectures on their experiences and research results to the 75 attendees. AENS is leading research efforts into the ability of simple outpatient surgical operations to provide relief to people with painful diabetes or chemotherapy neuropathy, diabetic foot complications, traumatic nerve injuries, and chronic pain after surgical procedures. The associated Extremity Nerve Research Foundation is sponsoring several investigations and seeks patients with painful diabetes or foot ulcer problems willing to participate in studies to further test the usefulness of simple, safe nerve surgery for these problems.
