Popis: | Painful neuromas following injury to the radial side of the wrist can be treated by relocation away from the zone of injury and implantation into muscle. Relocation to the brachialis muscle is useful for isolated neuromas of the lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve and involves a shorter dissection than relocation to the brachioradialis. It is also useful in patients undergoing multiple procedures to avoid disturbing previous relocations to the brachioradialis. This paper describes the successful relocation of painful neuromas of the lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve to the brachialis muscle in seven patients. |
