Abstract
Lipomas are very common benign tumors which are preferentially located in the neck and trunk, however other locations which are rare but can exist such as the hand and its commissures. We report one case of a massif lipoma of the first commissural that progressed for 10 years of a 61year-old woman. In spite of the size of the tumor and its extensions to others interosseous spaces no nerve compression sign was reported by the patient. We signal the interest of MRI that allow us to define limits of the mass and to ease the surgical treatment. The mass was resected in a bloc without any lesions of vessels, nerves or tendons. Post operative period was uneventful. And the patient had excellent hand and fingers function after a few days of gentle mobilization exercises.
