Abstract:
Metastases to the peripheral bones of the extremities are rare. Such lesions are often diagnosed as inflammatory or infective in nature. We present a report of a case of simultaneous involvement of the peripheral bones of the extremities--the talus and the thumb of the left hand--with a brief review of pathophysiology and management.
