Case study: A large solitary neurofibroma of the toe
Podiatry Management
The majority of benign soft tissue masses are
non-neoplastic and of little
clinical consequence. However, some locally aggressive, large masses including
neurofibromas can lead to
morbidities including pain,
paresthesias, numbness,

compromised innervation.
Neurofibromas are typically benign nerve sheath tumors in the peripheral nervous system.

Physicians Practice
Establishing a streamlined collection outreach process is essential in order to keep your practice running. It is your main source of income, after all.
However, this critical operational area is not necessarily the easiest to master. You can either attempt to communicate due payments yourself, or rely on firms to do the heavy lifting for you. Whichever you choose, you will need to ensure that communicating payments is performed with the utmost caution and patient’s care in mind.
