Late Presentation of Recurrent Symptomatic Amputation Neuroma

INTRODUCTION: Post-traumatic amputation neuroma is one of the common complications that involve optimal functional outcomes. The current literature has a few examples of late presentation of traumatic stump neuroma. However, no available examples of late presentation of recurrent symptomatic amputat...

description INTRODUCTION: Post-traumatic amputation neuroma is one of the common complications that involve optimal functional outcomes. The current literature has a few examples of late presentation of traumatic stump neuroma. However, no available examples of late presentation of recurrent symptomatic amputation neuroma causing impaired functional outcomes have been reported. CASE REPORT: We present a case of recurrent symptomatic stump neuroma after above-knee amputation and neurectomy for 28 years. CONCLUSION: Late presentation of recurrent stump neuroma is an unusual condition, requiring early detection and treatment to gain better functionality. The patient scenario is unique and valuable for future management, including case awareness regarding this unique pathology.
