Has anyone had the surgical procedure called The Dellon procedure?

20 + years , spending the last two trying to diagnose. I found a podiatrist that listened and touched my feet and legs. He performs the Dellon procedure on his neuropathy patients. Anyone know of it or had the procedure done?

Interested in more discussions like this? Go to the Neuropathy Support Group.

Update: I had surgery on August 1, 2024. It has been a long, painful recovery, and I don't see the light at the end of the tunnel. I was NWB for 30 days, and was recently given a boot - PT is helping. Still, unfortunately, the incision on the side of my foot is healing slowly making it impossible to wear the boot without pain and aggravating and opening the incision. Sadly, my hope is to return to the level of pain I had before surgery. I wish I could recommend this surgery - at this time, I do not.
