Journal Title: Journal of Evidence Based Medicine and Healthcare - Year 2018, Vol 5, Issue 12

Abstract

PRESENTATION OF CASE We present a case of fibrolipomatous hamartoma of the median nerve. The patient is a 17-year-old female with painless swelling of the mid-palm for 1 month. The involved sites included the left palm, wrist and forearm. Magnetic resonance imaging demonstrated a typical fibrolipomatous hamartoma with high signal intensity of fat on both T1-weighted and T2-weighted images, characteristic coaxial cable appearance on axial images, and spaghetti appearance on sagittal images.
