Beschreibung:
<jats:p>A 54-year-old patient presented with progressive pain for one month in the second finger of the right hand with an emphasis on the proximal interphalangeal (PIP) joint. Subsequent magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) showed a diffuse intraosseous lesion at the base of the middle phalanx with destruction of the cortical bone and extraosseous soft tissue. An expansively growing chondromatous bone tumor, e.g., a chondrosarcoma, was suspected. After incisional biopsy, the pathologic findings finally revealed, surprisingly, a metastasis of a poorly differentiated non-small cell adenocarcinoma of the lung. This case illustrates a rare but important differential diagnosis for painful finger lesions.</jats:p>
