Traumatic neuroma and scar tissue

Publication |

Abstract

Deng et al. descibed a case of 29-year-old female complaining of numbness in in the region of the left lower lip and chin, based on previous iatrogenic trauma during chin augmentation with alloplastic material based on solid silicone and subsequent development of traumatic neuroma. In their case, the patient did not agree to complete removal of the tumor with the nerve and subsequent nerve transplantation, so only part of the traumatic neuroma was removed for microscopic verification of the tumor character.
