About this document
Neuroma Implantation and Wrist Fracture by Fernando Sousa is a document available to read on EtoBox.
The document discusses a case where a patient fractured their radius through a previous corticotomy site where a neuroma from their superficial branch of the radial nerve had been implanted nine years prior. The authors believe the previous surgery may have weakened the bone and increased its susceptibility to fracture. They now prefer to excise and repair neuromas or transplant them to muscle rather than implant them in bone to avoid this potential complication.
