  • Title: Nerve compression by pacinian corpuscles.
    Author: Gama C, França LC.
    Journal: J Hand Surg Am; 1980 May; 5(3):207-10. PubMed ID: 7400555.
    Abstract:
    Compression of nerves of the hand by hyperplasia of pacinian corpuscles is a rare occurrence. Six cases with previous history of trauma in the hand in four of them have been reported in the literature. We present two cases of nerve compression of the two varieties reported, both with previous histories of trauma. In these two cases, surgical excision of the tumor determined the disappearance of clinical symptoms.
