ABSTRACT
Enchondroma protuberans is an exophytic enchondroma of the long bones, is a
rare condition. There are 7 reports in the world literature with only 2 hand
cases. We report an Enchondroma protuberans of the little finger middle
phalanx of the left hand 8th in the literature and 3rd in the hand treated
with marginal resection and intramedullary curettage. The diagnosis is based
on the clinical assessment, X-rays and magnetic resonance.
