Diagnosis in short

Synonyms Nora lesion
Site hands, feet

Prevalence rare

Bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation, also known as Nora lesion, is a distinctive rare lesion of the hand or foot.[1]

A distinctive osteochondromatous proliferation of hands and feet.

Population:

  • Young adults.
  • Typically age (years) 20s and 30s.[1]

Location

Hands and feet

Radiology

  • Marginated wide based bony growth projecting into the soft tissues.[2]
