Overview
The term neuroma originates from two Greek words, neuro- from the Greek word for nerve (νεῦρον), and -oma (-ωμα) from the Greek word for swelling. In 1876, neuroma was first described by Thomas Morton and Morton's neuroma was first correctly described by a chiropodist named Durlacher. In 2000, a small study reviewed the medical records of 85 people who had their feet imaged with MRI, and it was found out that 33% of the patients had morton's neuroma without any pain.
Historical Perspective
- The term neuroma originates from the following two Greek words:
- In 1876, neuroma was first described by Thomas Morton
- Morton's neuroma was first correctly described by a chiropodist named Durlacher
- In 2000, a small study reviewed the medical records of 85 people who had their feet imaged with MRI, and it was found out that 33% of the patients had morton's neuroma without any pain[1]
