Osteochondromas, are the most common tumors of the long bones in children. Osteochondromas are extremely rare in the carpal bones. They are diagnosed in adult life, in almost all cases in the literature. We report a 7 year old boy, who presented with a hard mass on the dorsum of his hand, with decreased wrist movements. Radiological examination showed a calcified tumor of the second row of the carpal bones, with spherical shape and covered with cartilage. He was surgically treated with removal of a cartilaginous mass that was arising from the capitate. Pathology confirmed the diagnosis of an osteochondroma.

“…Differentiation of hand BPOP lesions should be done with osteochondroma-like lesions. [7] Middle phalanx has been found to be commonly involved in four cases followed by metacarpals in three cases, and proximal phalanx in one case. BPOP may be a rare lesion, but the cortical and medullary connections in advance imaging will differentiate osteochondroma from BPOP in most cases.…”

The bizarre parosteal osteochondromatous proliferation or Nora’s lesion is an unusual clinical entity that presents with localized swelling and pain. The characteristic radiological appearance includes a cluster of variably calcified lesions adjacent to a particular bone. However, it does not necessarily have direct continuity with its medullary region. The etiopathogenesis of this disorder is not yet fully understood. Various other lesions require careful exclusion and the use of advanced imaging modalities to supplement the diagnosis. The final diagnosis of the lesion, however, is based on the histopathological basis. However, these lesions are reported as sporadic reports or small series in the literature and are also discovered in areas other than the common locations in hands and feet. The recent research aims to throw more advanced knowledge into their causation, including genetic etiology. The symptomatic lesions may require excision for clinical relief, but recurrence is not uncommon. The future research, and preferably multi-center collaboration, is required for more insight into their comprehensive nature and clinical spectrum. A brief and crisp update of the articles published in the past 10 years describing bizarre parosteal oseochondromatous proliferation in the extremities is presented here for educational purposes for orthopedists and generalists alike.
