In-situ collagen injection in postamputation symptomatic neuroma: A case report
This case highlights the potential utility of in situ collagen injections as a safe, minimally invasive therapeutic option for symptomatic neuromas. Although the observed analgesic and functional benefits warrant further investigation, collagen injections could offer a new therapeutic approach for managing neuroma pain and serve as a promising alternative to more invasive interventions, especially in the elderly and multimorbid patients.
