Description: Radiology case 436-3122 Clinical presentation:
30 year old man with a history of pain in the left middle finger, relieved by aspirin.
There is sclerosis of the proximal phalanx of the left middle finger. This takes the form of a peripheral mid-diaphyseal fairly well-defined 4mm. lucency and adjacent related cortical thickening.
The isotope bone scans show increased flow and an increase in the late uptake in the region of the suspect lesion. The location is unusual, but the appearance and presentation typical for this pathology.
