background: tumors involving the hand skeleton are rare. however, a basic knowledge of hand tumors is necessary for every clinician. this is due to the importance of distinguishing typical benign tumors from life or limb threatening malignant ones. methods: this study is a review of 99 cases of osseous hand tumors presented to the department of orthopedic surgery, imam khomeini hospital in tehr...

the majority of osseous tumors of the hand are benign. the surgeon who evaluates and treats osseous tumors of the hand has to be familiar with limb anatomy, tumor biology, various presentations of the tumors and the range of treatment possibilities and their limitations. lesions in the hand more often present earlier in their course than those at other sites, just because they are more likely t...

  Giant Cell tumors (GCT) are benign tumors with potential for aggressive behavior and capacity to metastasize. Although rarely lethal, benign bone tumors may be associated with a substantial disturbance of the local bony architecture that can be particularly troublesome in peri-articular locations. Its histogenesis remains unclear. It is characterized by a proliferation of mononuclear stromal ...
