Effect of duration from lingual nerve injury to the microneurosurgery on Schwann cells in traumatic neuroma. Immunohistochemistry using anti-S100β antibody was performed on traumatic neuroma samples from early cases (a) and later cases (b). The abundance ratio of Schwann cells was significantly lower in the traumatic neuroma samples from later cases (c). Scale bar indicates 500 μm. Asterisk indicates significant difference between early and later cases (P < 0.05)
