| Core Tip |
Neuromuscular choristoma (NMC) is a rare benign developmental lesion of peripheral nerves in which mature muscle fibres are intermingled with nerve fascicles. Although NMC is histologically benign, unnecessary surgical intervention can provoke an aggressive desmoid-type fibromatosis in the affected nerve. Paediatric sciatic nerve NMC cases are extremely uncommon, with only one published report providing long-term follow-up. We present an 11-year follow-up of a child with a sciatic NMC, underscoring the significant orthopaedic sequelae that can arise and necessitate complex multidisciplinary management. This under-recognised aspect of NMC care is a key clinical consideration highlighted by our case. |
