Abstract

Lipomas are very rarely localized to the hand and commissures. We report a case of a giant lipoma of the first commissure that had been evolving for 10 years in a 60-year-old woman with signs of carpal tunnel. The mass was removed en bloc without damage to vascular, neural or tendinous elements. Post-operative management was straightforward, and the patient recovered good mobility in her hand and fingers.
