Thanks for contacting HCM
I am sorry to hear that you have an abnormal lesion seen on your MRI of the left thigh. This lesion was suggestive of a neuroma. A neuroma is a tumor made up of nerve tissue. It is rarely if ever cancerous. It can occasionally cause pain. If the neuroma is painful then my need to be surgically removed. If you are not having pain then I would not recommend removing the neuroma.
