A traumatic neuroma refers to a condition characterized by an abnormal growth of nerve cells that develop following a traumatic injury. Although the term "traumatic neuroma" is commonly used, several synonymous terms can be used to describe this condition. Alternative terms include "amputation neuroma" or "neuroma-in-continuity", which are often used when the affected nerve is severed or partially injured but remains intact within the surrounding tissue. Furthermore, the term "post-traumatic neuroma" or "painful neuroma" can be utilized when referring to the persistent pain experienced by individuals with this condition. All these synonymous terms aim to describe the same condition, emphasizing the underlying traumatic etiology and the subsequent nerve cell growth.
