Summary: | A 13-year-old boy presented with a swelling on the dorsum of distal phalanx of the great toe of the right foot, encroaching the nail bed. The swelling had been present for about 6 months and there was a history of trauma preceding the onset of the lesion. The lesion had increased in size for the first 3 months, but thereafter the size remained the same. The lesion was asymptomatic without any pain or swelling of the adjacent tissue. The mass was about 7 mm in diameter. It was non-tender and firm to hard on palpation [Figure - 1]. |
