Startle sign events induced by mechanical manipulation during surgery for neuroma localization: a retrospective cohort study
Here, we identified hypothesis-generating descriptive differences in anesthetic management associated with the detection of the neuroma startle sign during neuroma excision surgery, suggesting ways to deliver anesthesia facilitating detection of this phenomenon. Prospective trials are needed to further validate the hypotheses generated.
