The basic concepts of [human] nerve capping for prevention of painful neuroma production were discussed. The need for an organized fibrous connective tissue sheath encasing the transected nerve end to prevent painful neuroma formation was stressed. A modification of the silastic tubing capping technique using a Silastic elastomer in ponies was presented and discussed. This method has the decided advantage of needing only 0.5 cm of nerve stump to carry out the capping procedure.
