Abstract

Giant lipoma of the hand is rare. The diagnosis is based on a clinical tumor and acroparesthesia from compression of the median and ulnar nerves. The MRI is the best exam to study local extension. Fibrolipoma of the median nerve and low-grade liposarcoma are the principal differential diagnoses.
