Unexpected complication or diagnostic clue: exaggerated pain during fine needle aspiration biopsy of a neck mass

Abstract

Traumatic neuromas are known to occur anywhere in the body, but they can develop at any site where a nerve is damaged. In this case, a traumatic neuroma which arose in the neck after lymph node dissection for papillary thyroid carcinoma is reported with its sonographic findings. Severe pain during biopsy procedure is also a diagnostic clue for this condition. A traumatic neuroma is a thwarted attempt by a nerve, injured or severed by prior trauma or surgery, to regenerate, resulting in a tangle of neural fibers and connective tissue. They are diagnosed some years after the trauma, usually by chance, as a small tumor near the scar that is tender to palpation or spontaneously painful.
