Abstract:
Skeletal metastases of neoplastic lesions are common but are rarely encountered in the hand. We describe a patient who presented with metastases to the hand and who died one year later of squamous cell carcinoma of the lung. The aetiology, clinical findings and treatment of neoplastic metastases of the hand are discussed.
