title: [An unusual location of juxtaosseous ossified lipoma. A case report].
abstract: We report a case of juxtaosseous ossified lipoma. Clinical and radiological features make it an exceptional case, because of its location at the hand and presence of cortical erosion of the subjacent bone. However, the histological study of this rare benign tumor showed neither cytonuclear atypia nor increasing number of mitosis. It made easy its surgical treatment, without any functional sequelae. The patient reported no local recurrence in the follow-up; the risk is low, given its histological character.
