Multiple Neuromas Cause Painful "jumping Stump" in a Transfemoral Amputee
© SAGE Publications. Painful "jumping stump" is an uncommon but very disturbing complication postamputation. This condition is one of the movement disorder entities resulting from peripheral nerve pathology, often known as "peripherally induced movement disorders." Previously cas...

Painful "jumping stump" is an uncommon but very disturbing complication postamputation. This condition is one of the movement disorder entities resulting from peripheral nerve pathology, often known as "peripherally induced movement disorders." Previously case reports have been written about painful and nonpainful incidence of "jumping stump"; however, only the earliest "jumping stump" article in 1852 suspected that neuromas might influence the involuntary movement. In this study, we describe a 38-year-old man with bilateral transfemoral amputee who suffered from painful "jumping stump" with multiple neuromas confirmed by imaging. He was treated successfully by ultrasound-guided phenol injection into the sciatic neuroma stalks. The pathophysiology of jumping stump and its possible association with neuroma are briefly discussed. 2017-09-28T04:21:58Z 2017-09-28T04:21:58Z 2016-09-01 Journal 15347346 2-s2.0-84981555686 10.1177/1534734616657964 https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?partnerID=HzOxMe3b&scp=84981555686&origin=inward http://cmuir.cmu.ac.th/jspui/handle/6653943832/41551 |
