Abstract
We report a subungual extraskeletal chondroma with a convex nail deformity originating from the index finger in a 39-year-old man. The tumor was excised and its histopathology showed obvious nuclear pleomorphism. However, the Ki-67 (MIB-1) labeling index was less than 1%, indicating low proliferative activity; it was classified as an extraskeletal chondroma with atypical features. There was no recurrence over a 3-year postoperative period. Copyright 2010 American Society for Surgery of the Hand. Published by Elsevier Inc. All rights reserved.Entities:
