Sausage digit due to radish bacillus.

E C Huskisson, D V Doyle, E F Fowler, E J Shaw.   

Abstract

We wish to draw attention to a very characteristic but little known syndrome. An elderly woman presented with a 'sausage finger', rheumatological jargon used to describe diffuse swelling of the digit. This proved to be a proliferative tenosynovitis caused by an atypical mycobacterium, Mycobacterium terrae, or the radish bacillus.
