TL;DR
This paper presents a case of a traumatic neuroma without a known history of trauma, highlighting its diagnostic challenges and treatment.
Contribution
The novelty lies in emphasizing traumatic neuroma as a possible diagnosis in the absence of documented trauma.
Findings
Traumatic neuroma should be considered in differential diagnosis even without trauma history.
Surgical excision plays a key role in treatment and diagnosis confirmation.
Abstract
In the differential diagnosis of nerve‐related lesions, even when there is no documented trauma, this case emphasizes the significance of taking traumatic neuroma into account. It also draws attention to the difficulties in determining the cause and the function of surgical excision in treatment.
