    Journal: Sem Hop; 1984 Jan 12; 60(1):49-51. PubMed ID: 6320434.
    Abstract:
    One case of benign osteoblastoma, localized on the proximal phalanx of right thumb is reported. Three points are emphasized: the low frequency in the hand, only six observations are reported in the English literature, one by Jaffe (1932) and four by Lichtenstein (1964) and one from Mosher and coll. (1978). The non-specificity of the signs and X-ray are must consider chondroma, giant cell tumor, chondrosarcoma or aneurysmal cyst. The lesion is benign and so the treatment must be conservative.
