Abstract

A case of intraosseous nerve transposition for treatment of elbow joint amputation neuroma from the median nerve is reported. The patient was a 38-year-old female. She underwent elbow joint amputation after trauma at another hospital in 1995. She noticed a mass, and experienced painful paresthesia near the amputation stump since 1997. We performed intraosseous nerve fransposition at our hospital in 1997. She went into complete remission from painful paresthesiasoon after operation.
