A new type of surgery offers amputees better control of muscles that remain after surgery, and of their prosthetic limbs, its inventors say.
The standard surgical approach to amputation has changed little since the American Civil War, according to developers of the new approach.

In their small study, the new procedure also helped curb pain and sensations like the troubling phantom limb syndrome.
In working with all these patients, that s actually been one of the most rewarding parts of my experience. They have been very receptive and very open to trying this, said Shriya Srinivasan. She is a postdoctoral researcher at Massachusetts Institute of Technology, in Cambridge, Mass., and lead author of the study. ....

New type of surgery can help amputees better control their residual muscles


New type of surgery can help amputees better control their residual muscles
MIT researchers have invented a new type of amputation surgery that can help amputees to better control their residual muscles and sense where their phantom limb is in space. This restored sense of proprioception should translate to better control of prosthetic limbs, as well as a reduction of limb pain, the researchers say.
In most amputations, muscle pairs that control the affected joints, such as elbows or ankles, are severed. However, the MIT team has found that reconnecting these muscle pairs, allowing them to retain their normal push-pull relationship, offers people much better sensory feedback. ....

MIT researchers have invented a new type of amputation surgery that can help amputees to better control their residual muscles and sense where their “phantom limb” is in space. This restored sense of proprioception should translate to better control of prosthetic limbs, as well as a reduction of limb pain, the researchers say.
