  • Title: Metastatic bronchogenic carcinoma masquerading as a felon.
    Author: Rose BA, Wood FM.
    Journal: J Hand Surg Am; 1983 May; 8(3):325-8. PubMed ID: 6875239.
    Abstract:
    This report describes a rare occurrence of a subcutaneous metastatic bronchogenic carcinoma to the distal fingertip. The original clinical presentation suggested an infectious process. Subsequent roentgenograms, sterile cultures, and positive biopsy material revealed that the lesion started as a subcutaneous metastasis that secondarily involved adjacent bone. Amputation of the digit was performed.
