Tuberculoma is a well-circumscribed, space-occupying lesion. However, the involvement of peripheral nerves is rare. Here, we report a rare case of left ulnar nerve tuberculoma managed by surgical exploration and tangential excision of tuberculoma lesion sparing, most of the nerve fibers followed by antitubercular treatment. The patient responded well to the management strategy with improvement in motor and sensory activity of the affected limb.
结核瘤是一种边界清晰的占位性病变。然而,周围神经受累情况罕见。在此,我们报告一例罕见的左尺神经结核瘤病例,通过手术探查及对结核瘤病变进行切线切除,保留大部分神经纤维,随后进行抗结核治疗。患者对该治疗策略反应良好,患侧肢体的运动和感觉功能有所改善。
