NCT ID NCT06578767
First seen Aug 04, 2026 · Last updated Aug 05, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This trial tests whether a robot-assisted surgical procedure can relieve chronic pain caused by trapped nerves in the pelvic area. The surgery aims to free the pudendal and inferior cluneal nerves, which may be compressed and causing pain. Researchers will measure changes in pain, anxiety, depression, and quality of life over a year. The study includes 200 adults with this condition who haven't found relief from medical treatment.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Robot-assisted laparoscopic decompression of the pudendal and inferior cluneal nerves
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this could offer a surgical option for people with chronic pelvic pain that hasn't improved with medication, potentially improving pain and quality of life.
- What could go wrong
- This is a surgical procedure with risks like any operation, and it's unclear if it will work for everyone. The trial's results will show whether the benefits outweigh the risks.
