👉 Metatrophy is a medical term used to describe an abnormal condition or tumor that can cause pain, swelling, and sometimes bleeding in the neck. It is often associated with conditions like subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH), which occurs when blood vessels rupture due to trauma such as a fall or injury. The exact cause of metatrophy is not fully understood but it is thought to be related to an abnormal growth of nerve cells that are damaged during surgery or other procedures.
