Compressive Mass of the Thearloop Revealing an Intramuscular Lipoma of the Short Abductor of the Thumb (A Case Report)

Journal Title: Journal of Orthopedics & Bone Disorders - Year 2017, Vol 1, Issue 2

Abstract

The lipoma of the thear louse is a rare lesion, which is often expressed by a tumor syndrome and signs of compression of the branches of the median nerve. Magnetic resonance imaging is the exam of choice to study the local extension of the tumor. The main differential diagnoses are median nerve lipofibroma and low grade liposarcoma.
