article · Trauma Case Reports
Introduction: Radial nerve neuromas (RNNs) are mostly post-traumatic conditions that occur after a complete or partial section of a nerve. Here we report a case of post-traumatic RNN with good functional progression after intense physical rehabilitation. Case presentation: A 49 years old patient with a post-complete section of the radial nerve underwent intensive physical rehabilitation with two sessions of ultrasound-guided injections of 10 % glucose saline around the neuroma. 12 months later, the patient improved his wrist and hand finger extension functions. Conclusion: Several surgical and non-surgical therapies have been proposed for the treatment of neuromas. However, no consensus currently exists, and management is frequently adapted to each patient.
