A traumatic neuroma is a major cause of persistent neuropathic pain. Diagnostic imaging tools are critical to the success of surgical treatment. Ultra-high-frequency ultrasound is a novel technology that can generate frequencies up to 70 MHz, assessing structures up to 30 μm. We report a unique case of intraoperative use of ultra-high-frequency ultrasound to provide detailed imaging of nerve fascicles, facilitating surgical excision of the mass.

创伤性神经瘤是持续性神经性疼痛的主要原因。诊断成像工具对手术治疗的成功至关重要。超高频超声是一种能够产生高达70兆赫频率的新技术，可评估至30微米的结构。我们报告了一例术中使用超高频超声对神经束进行详细成像以辅助肿物手术切除的独特病例。
