INTRODUCTION: Leiomyoma of peripheral nerve is a rare condition characterized by neuropathy of affected nerve. We herein report a rare presentation of leiomyoma of radial nerve which presented with wrist drop.
PATIENT CONCERNS: A 37-year-old man visited our clinic with a history of sudden onset weakness of the wrist dorsiflexion/finger extension of the right side.
DIAGNOSIS: T2-weighted with fat saturation image of MRI demonstrated a well-defined, intra-neural, round mass of about 0.8 cm × 0.5 cm within the radial nerve. Excision of mass established the pathological diagnosis of intra-neural leiomyoma.
INTERVENTIONS: The patient underwent excision of mass and attached nerve tissue, followed his medial antebrachial nerve graft for repair of the defected radial nerve.
OUTCOMES: As of the 1-year follow-up, no symptoms of recurrence have been observed. Also, the strength of wrist dorsiflexion improved to grade 4/5 CONCLUSION:: This rare case demonstrates the importance of MR imaging to differentiate intra-neural leiomyomas from other benign peripheral nerve sheath tumors. Surgical treatment plays an important role in the treatment of patient with intraneural leiomyoma with neurologic deficits.
