What is another word for Neurotomy?
Pronunciation: [njuːɹˈə͡ʊtəmɪ] (IPA) 
Neurotomy is a term commonly used in neurology and refers to the surgical procedure of severing nerve fibers. This procedure is often performed to alleviate chronic neuromuscular pain or involuntary muscle contractions in conditions such as cerebral palsy and dystonia. There are several synonyms that can be used for neurotomy, including nerve cutting, nerve sectioning, nerve severing, and nerve transection. These terms all describe the same process of removing a portion of a nerve or disconnecting the nerve from the central nervous system. Neurotomy is generally considered to be a last resort treatment and is only recommended when other, less invasive treatments have failed to provide relief.
