A 69-year-old man presented with a 20-year history of a slowly enlarging mass of the left index finger dating from a hammer injury. The mass was excised, and seen to have the characteristic histological appearance of an elastofibroma, a benign tumour-like growth usually found in the soft tissue of the back. Such a lesion has not previously been documented in the hand, which we consider surprising in view of the generally accepted traumatic aetiology of this entity and the susceptibility of the hand to injury.
一名69岁男性，自20年前因锤击伤后左示指出现缓慢增大的肿块，现前来就诊。该肿块被切除，组织学表现具有弹力纤维瘤的特征，弹力纤维瘤是一种通常发生于背部软组织的良性肿瘤样生长。此前手部尚未有此类病变的记录，鉴于该疾病普遍认可的创伤性病因以及手部易受伤的特点，我们认为这一情况令人惊讶。
