title: [Lipoma of the fingers].
abstract: Benign tumours of the hand are a common disease, usually corresponding to nodes. Other etiologies are less common. Lipomas of the hand are a rare feature, especially in the fingers. We present four cases of digital lipomas and a review of surgery of lipomas over the past ten years, and of the literature.
