An 8-year-old girl suffered a wrist laceration from a sharp glass, severing the median nerve. The nerve was end-to-end repaired at the time by a pediatric orthopedic surgeon. Six months later, the girl suffered wrist pain and hyperesthesia over the previous surgical incision, significantly affecting her daily activities. Physical examination revealed a palpable mass over the median nerve with a positive Tinel sign, and the diagnosis of a painful neuroma in continuity was set. She underwent another surgery where the defective neuroma in-continuity was excised, and the median nerve was reconstructed using sural nerve cable autografts. At 18 months follow-up after the second surgery, the girl appeared with a full passive and active painless range of motion and a negative Tinel sign. This is the first case of neuroma in continuity presenting in a child in the literature, successfully managed surgically.
