Neuroma
A neuroma is a growth or tumor of nerve tissue. Just as the Latin word for swelling is now restricted to neoplasias, the equivalent Greek suffix -oma has shared in that fate. Thus, the typical modern usage of neuroma is for nerve tumors. However, many of the older, more general uses persist.
U.S. National Library of Medicine
Neuroma
A tumor made up of nerve cells and nerve fibers. (Dorland, 27th ed)
