Abstract

Most tumors involving the wrist, hand, and fingers consist of skin, soft tissue, and bone. Many of these tumors are benign, with only a small percentage considered malignant. The location of these tumors can contribute to patient apprehension and concern. This article aims to review epidemiology, describe physical characteristics, and review diagnostic imaging studies and treatment options commonly used to treat benign tumors of the wrist, hand, and fingers.
