The surgical management of perineurioma remains controversial, and reports of clinical recovery after nerve grafts and nerve transfers vary. Nerve transfers have been reported to provide superior results to traditional nerve grafting in adults with post-traumatic plexus injuries. The modest gain in strength of our patient who underwent a nerve transfer raises the question if this may also apply to patients with perineurioma. Additional studies will be required, which must also take into consideration that features of long-standing neuropathy (i.e., limb length discrepancy) have the potential to reduce the likelihood of reinnervation and clinical recovery.
