Abstract
Unlabelled:
Perineuriomas are rare tumors of the peripheral nervous system that occur as either intraneural or extraneural lesions. Intraneural perineuriomas generally affect the major nerve branches in the upper extremity, whereas extraneural perineuriomas have a predilection for the subcutaneous tissues of the lower extremities. In this article, we describe the case of an adult patient who had a perineurioma localized to the foot.
Level Of Clinical Evidence:
4.
