Nodular fasciitis of the ulnar nerve at the palm.
A 42-year-old woman complained of progressive induration in the right palm. As the mass was impossible to separate from the ulnar nerve, we excised the mass together with the digital nerve and grafted 4cm of the sural nerve. The final diagnosis was nodular fasciitis.
