Incidence and anatomical distribution of hand tumours: a Singapore study.
Hand tumours are frequently encountered in clinical practice. A list of differential diagnoses of the most common hand tumours based on anatomical location would be helpful for clinicians. We aimed to determine the anatomical distribution of hand tumours seen at a hand surgery practice in Singapore. ⋯ Most hand tumours were benign. Ganglions were the most common tumours between the CMCJs and RCJ, while GCTTSs were the most common tumours distal to the MCPJs.
