Case Study : Osseous Pathology with Peripheral Nerve Entrapment and Neuromata - 23/03/16

Résumé |
This case illustrates the complexity and interrelationship of osseous pathology with peripheral nerve entrapment and neuromata. She had an iatrogenic nerve injury of a branch of the medial dorsal cutaneous nerve causing her painful scar. Secondarily, she developed an injury to her common peroneal nerve from the cast immobilization, resulting in palsy/drop foot. The tarsal tunnel entrapment was likely a sequela of the cast immobilization and chronic swelling. Her postoperative chronic pain was compounded by the failure to use grommets with the polymeric silicon (Silastic) implant at the initial surgery, leading to a breakdown of the implant with subsequent detritic synovitis.
