Treatment of a Recurrent Neuroma Within Nerve Allograft With Autologous Nerve Reconstruction.
Hand (N Y)
June 2016
R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center, Baltimore, MD, USA; University of Maryland-Upper Chesapeake Health, Bel Air, MD, USA; Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, Baltimore, MD, USA.
Background: The purpose of this case report is to describe the findings of a neuroma within an allograft, highlight the unique opportunity to evaluate the allograft (following human engraftment) ex vivo histologically, to reinforce an effective treatment strategy, and review outcomes in peripheral nerve surgery regarding gap defect distance.
Method: A 55-year-old, right hand dominant man suffered a workplace injury 37 years ago resulting in lacerations and crush injury of the palm and lacerations of the left index finger requiring multiple neuroma excisions and eventual ray amputation. In an attempt to address stump neuroma pain and restore sensation of the radial digital nerve of the middle finger, which was lost after the ray amputation, a neuroma was resected and reconstructed with a 45-mm bioabsorbable allograft (AxoGen, Inc, Alachua, Florida).
