title: Subungual exostosis.
abstract: From 1980 through 1990, twenty-two patients with subungual exostosis were treated in PUMC Hospital and the Sixth Hospital of Beijing. The incidence of subungual exostosis was 4.6% among all bone tumors. Post-adolescents and young adults were most commonly affected, and the female to male ratio was 1.75 to 1. The great toe was the most often involved site. Radiological findings were found to be diagnostic, and local tumor excision is the treatment of choice.
