Abstract
We present the case of an 11-year-old boy with intraneural nodular fasciitis of the median nerve at the distal part of the carpal tunnel. Complete excision of the involved median nerve and cable grafting using 4 fascicular segments of the sural nerve was performed for persistent pain and numbness after initial resection of the tumor in piecemeal fashion. Pain and numbness were completely resolved and there was no evidence of recurrence 24 months after the final surgery.
