Abstract
A case of chronic erosion of the soft tissues and bone of the proximal phalanx of the ring finger in a 62-year-old woman is presented. The patient's rings had eroded the skin, nerves, and tendons of the finger as well as the palmar aspect of the proximal phalanx; however, circulation was adequate. When the rings were removed, there was no improvement in sensibility or range of motion, but this was not bothersome to the patient.Entities:
