| Summary: | Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation (BPOP; Nora's lesion) is the most common benign osteocartilaginous lesion. It is most commonly seen in hands followed by the long bones, feet, and skull. The clinical and pathological feature's of Nora's Lesion mimick malignant lesions. The recurrence rate of lesion is 20%–50%. We present a case of BPOP of the middle phalanx of the middle finger. The importance of the case is that involvement of hand may not rare, but it's present in the proximal phalanges is very rare. In our case, it is present in the middle phalanx of the right middle finger. |
