My Potter MRI says that I have scar tissue in two areas of the pudental nerve. Is that the same as entrapment? Krisssy

It could mean that. Often scar tissue entraps the nerve.

Hi Violet

Can scar tissue from a previous operation be removed? I think that I have the same problem as Krissy. I've decided to go the same route as her. I'm awaiting an appointment with Dr Hibner as Dr bautrat, inspite of speaking to him, has shown no interest in sending me promised information. I'm just concerned about whether Dr Hibner will be in a position to remove scar tissue that arose from a previous operation.Has anyone gone through this process?

Krissy,
Do you think it is scar tissue from your previous abd surgeries?

Linkey,

Dr. Hibner is an excellent surgeon and STRONG believer in re-do surgeries. I would suggest contacting him asap if you consider him. Aren't you in S. Africa? He may talk to you on the phone or over email since you are so far away. The office number is 602.406.6017. yes I have it memorized!!!

Scar tissue which is around the nerve, resulting from previous surgeries, can indeed be removed. My recent surgery had a lot of that going on.

Since it is my clitoris which hurts,and the scar tissue is wrapped around the clitoral part of the pudental nerve (Potter MRI), yes I think it is scar tissue from my previous 3 colon rectal surgeries. I am anxious to see what Dr. Conway and Dr. Hibner says. Krisssy
