NERVE TUMORS (Neuroma)Category: Diseases of The Nervous System A morbid increase in the tissue-elements of the peripheral (the external surface) nerves. Varieties. True and False Nerve Tumors. True nerve tumors (neuromata) are composed of nerve-fibres provided with a medullary (marrow) sheath or of nerve tissue; false nerve tumors are composed of other structure than nerve tissue, are usually of secondary origin, extending to the nerve from nearby structures. Symptoms. The true nerve tumors may be hereditary or due to wounds or blows and amputation. They may give rise to no symptoms, or may cause intermittent pain. Pressure increases this pain, when the condition of the nerve fibre is interfered with. Loss of local sensation and power may develop. It is sometimes possible to feel the little nodular growths, and they can be seen when they are superficial. They may give no pain, or they may become very sensitive. They may become chronic and they are very liable to do so. Some of them may disappear. PHYSICIANS' TREATMENT for Nerve Tumor. The severe forms should be cut out; others can be let alone.
