Abstract: CPN injuries are generally common but they are uncommon due to gunshot injuries and are associated with poor motor outcomes. Managing neuroma-in-continuity is still challenging because there are currently no accepted standards for deciding on the most effective course of treatment or estimating the time needed for repair. Treatment options for a neuroma-in-continuity include neurolysis, neuroma resection with interposition, end-to-side nerve grafting, and bypass grafting
