title: Mogul skier's palm: traumatic hypothenar ecchymosis.
abstract: A unique purpuric--golden lesion on the hypothenar eminence of each palm is described in a mogul skier. These painful lesions, resulting from vigorous repetitive pole planting in the "bumps" at a ski area, are postulated to represent a form of localized soft tissue injury.
