Imaging findings of an extradigital fibro-osseous pseudotumor
Japanese journal of radiology, 2014•Springer
Fibro-osseous pseudotumor (FOPT) is a rare and benign ossifying lesion. Described as the
superficial variant of myositis ossificans (MO), this rare entity mostly occurs in the
subcutaneous tissues of the digits. The FOPT clinicopathological features may mimic a
variety of benign and malignant soft tissue lesions, and the diagnosis can be difficult when it
arises in an unusual anatomic location. In this report we describe the clinical and
radiological features of a case of an FOPT that involved the hypothenar region of the hand.
