    Area of Science:

    • Orthopedic Surgery
    • Oncology
    • Dermatopathology

    Background:

    • Subungual osteochondromas are uncommon benign bone tumors typically found in the digits.
    • Early diagnosis and appropriate management are crucial for preserving digital function and aesthetics.

    Observation:

    • A case of a large subungual osteochondroma on the right ring finger is presented.
    • The tumor exhibited characteristic features on radiographic imaging.

    Findings:

    • Complete surgical excision of the nail bed and the subungual osteochondroma was performed.
    • Reconstruction of the distal nail bed was achieved using a split-thickness nail bed graft harvested from the great toe.

    Implications:

    • This case underscores the importance of recognizing the radiographic signs of subungual osteochondromas.
