Abstract:
Osteochondromas are among the most common bone tumors of the foot. However, they rarely occur in subungual locations. Clinically they appear as slow-growing masses causing deformity of the overlying nail. Here we present a case of subungual osteochondroma with characteristic clinical, radiologic, and histopathologic features. The lesion was successfully treated by total excision.
