Laterosubungual giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath: an unusual location

B Richert et al. J Am Acad Dermatol. 1999 Aug.

Abstract

Giant cell tumor of the tendon sheath is the second most frequent nonepithelial benign tumor of the hand after ganglion cyst. Although it is recognized as a condition that may involve the distal digit, there has been only 1 report of periungual involvement. We describe a second case at that site in this article.
