Desmoid tumours of the hand.
We report a case of a 3-year-old child with a desmoid tumour of the hand, which is an exceedingly rare location. Desmoid tumours of the hand are difficult to treat because of the many important structures concentrated in the area as well as the infiltrative and recurrent character of these tumours.
