[Digital pacinian hyperplasia. Report of a case associated with foreign body reaction].
Digital Pacinian Hyperplasia is a non tumoral, very rare lesion. To date, only 31 cases have been reported, occasionally named Digital Pacinian Neuroma. Digital pain is usually associated to. Local trauma is reported in about half of the cases. We report a new case occurred in a 62 year-old male, associated with inflammatory and foreign body reaction. No recurrence was observed 6 months after surgical excision. Differential diagnosis and controversies about this lesion are discussed.
